I know how to do this with Windows 2000 but not with Windows XP...
I use an external modem. If I turn the modem on before turning the PC on,
all is well. If I turn the modem on after the PC has booted, Windows XP
does not know the modem is there.
In Win 2K I could open control panel and detect new hardware as a solution.
How can I do this in XP especially if I am running as a limited user? I
have the administrative password, I do not run as administrator though.
Thank you,
John C
