I was wondering if anybody has any info on how (or if it is possible) to modify the inf files to make modem drivers work.
The problem is this: I have a Compaq laptop with a Compaq 56k v.90 modem. The system came with Windows ME and I have since installed Win2k in a dual-boot. I can't get the modem to work.
I have found out that the modem is produced by Askey, model # 1456VQL1Q-2 and has the same chipset as Askey's retail V1456VQH-R6(NPI) and/or V1456VQH-R6 (INT3) both of which work under win2k, but the drivers for the retail versions don't work on the one in my laptop. (Windows will not install them)
I was looking at the inf files and tried to compare them to the ones provided for WinME, is there any way to alter the inf file so that it looks in the right place or uses the correct identification information and loads the drivers?
Compaq has of course been no use and I've spent days looking for info, if anybody has any ideas (other than not buying from Compaq) or knows of any sites that might help, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks
