modem noise! it's driving me crazy


Question Posted Friday June 30 2006, 4:54 am

Hey. I recently upgraded my OS to Windows XP professional, and everything was fine.. until I tried connecting to the internet. It seemed the modem drivers had mysteriously been deleted. Well, I no longer have the CD (I've had the modem and PC for 5 years) so I went to a internet cafe today, downloaded a few drivers from the website of my modem (Conexant Soft56k) and installed them. Only one of the drivers worked. All was good until I connected to the internet.. and there's this constant loud modem noise which I can't turn off. I've tried turning the modem speaker down.. to no avail. I've also tried the "Extra initialization" function by adding M0, L0, ATL0 etc.. and other combinations I've found on various places online. Drivers I've installed haven't worked. Can anyone suggest anything I can do to combat this? It's difficult for me to stay online with this constant sound, but I have no clue how to get rid of it! Thanks for your help.
