I ahve installed a Diamond SupraExpress 56i Pro modem into my system.(details below) Whenever the phone rings the CPU usage goes up to 100% and stays there even if the phonecall is ended. This causes severe slowdown to my system and the problem is removed if the system is rebooted until the next phonecall. Even if my phone is removed from the "hook" the CPU usage increases significantly. If I disconnect the modem line the problem is removed. Has this happened to anyone else is there a check box which I have missed somewhere (I couldn't find anything about it on diamond website)
