XP doesn't recognise modem

I previously had ME on my PC, but have now also installed
XP as I got so fed up with ME.

All works ok, apart from the internal modem not
working/being recognised in XP. I try to install as a
standard 56000kbs PCI modem, and it automatically attaches
it to COM1. In ME, the Modem is connected to COM3, yet in
XP I don't get the option to connect to COM3.

Any suggestions?

Modem is a MR2800-W (I think made by AZT)

It took less time to find the driver doing a google search than it probably
took you to type in your question. Live and learn, eh.

(1st driver on list)

Good Luck,

P.S.

Set modem to TAPI in XP (likely th default).
