Yes I know I have BB and excellent it has been (apart from the odd email gripe) extremely reliable and only gone down a couple of times since getting it.BUT I want an alternative,just in case,just for emergencies dial up modem.I have one I just can't get XP to recognise it and accept any drivers for it.

Frankly despite all the attempts to make XP idiot proof they have made it impossible to get anything done in my opinion.Seems to me most ordinaryfolk would just give up and get a new one that XP accepts.Well I did that with my CDRW and that's enough expense thank you M$.

So can anyone help me or do I just have to accept that my modem is too out of date?

To be honest - I've got a drawer full of incompatible modems that I've taken out of systems that I've updated to XP.....

I would probably get that place that is going to sort your cdwriter out to put a new one in while they are fitting your usb2 card.
