Step 3: Install the Modem Driver

If you use Windows 2000 or above, you must install the modem driver. The modem driver tells Windows how to control the modem. If you use a Linux operating system, please see Appendix D. If you use another operating system, please refer to its documentation for modem installation information.

Installing the Modem Driver

2.On the Found New Hardware Wizard screen, check Search for the best driver in these locations and Install from a specific location. Do Not click Next at this point.

3.Insert the MultiModem product CD into your CD-ROM drive, when the MultiModem main screen appears, click Exit. Now, click Next on the Found New Hardware screen.

4.On the Found New Hardware Wizard screen, click on Search for the best driver in these locations and Search removable media. Click Next. Windows installs the modem driver.

5.Click Finish to exit.

For Windows NT, the Install New Modem wizard presents one additional prompt before Step 2. At this prompt, select Don’t detect my modem; I will select it from a list. Then click Next.

A dialog box with a list of manufacturers and a list of modem models appears. Select your modem. Continue with Step 2 above.
