Modem Removed By Computer Shop?

Aug 21, 2005

I'm probably going to sound like a newbie, but here goes.The computer shop recently formatted my computer and installed Windows XP Home with SP2, anyway when I got my computer back I was missing a modem which according to a printout I had done previously was a HSP56 MR.I called this shop to ask them why they had removed this modem when all that was asked of them was to format and install Windows XP Home on my computer.They had removed this without my permission.Their excuse for doing this was that the modem was virtually useless because the XP Home with SP2 rendered it incompatible? And that most ISP's don't even recognize them anymore? This from the very same computer shop who sold me a computer with a pirated version of XP.

JHT Log - IE, My Computer, And Paint Shop Problems

Aug 7, 2005

The problems we're having don't sound very similar, but they all happened around the same time.

Internet explorer only works if we put in the full address, with the "http://www." and everything. If we try to leave any part of the address out, it takes several minutes and then normally tells us that the page could not be found.

Accessing the "My Computer" for the first time takes several minutes. We've had to add direct links to all of our drives in order to get any work done.

When we open up pictures, they show up in "Jasc Paint Shop Photo Album" just fine. Then we get a window that says "Server Busy. This action could not be completed because the other program is busy." It doesn't matter whether we chose "Switch to" or "Retry," the window just keeps popping up again.

In addition, our computer is no longer able to communicate with our printer, but if I remember correctly, that problem occured before the ones I've listed above. I only include it here for completeness.

I've run McAfee, at least one on-line virus scanner, and Ad-aware on this system. None have turned up any problems. I've been suspicious of the "CT*" programs, but besides some coincidental evidence, I don't really know anything.

Thank you very much!

Modem Does Not Fully Wake Up Computer

Jul 21, 2005

The Laptop is in power saving mode: turn off monitor after 10 min,turn off hard disk after 10 min, system standby after 10 min. Hibernatedisabled. 'Allow modem to bring the cmputer out of standby ' option is
checked.Nevertheless, when the modem receives a call it doesn't fully wakes up the laptop: the screen is blank. To fully wake up the computer after modem receives a call, I have to move the mouse or hit a button. It creates a problem when I dial into the laptop remotely and can't physically activate the screen by pushing a button or moving the mouse. The modem should remotely fully wake up the laptop when it receives the call

Computer Dosent Recognize Modem

Sep 3, 2006

my sister tried to get on the internet today (we have dialup - modem connection) but it wouldnt go.After a bit of tinkering around, I discovered her modem isnt even being recognized by her PC, that is, on the list of installed hardware theres no "modem" sub-list at all.Its always worked until now, there hasent been any major changes to the system, and the modem is still installed and secured properly.I THINK it may be caused by a virus, I done a virus scan on her PC with RemoveIT Pro, and there were 3 viruses, I removed them hoping it would help, but it didnt. I also done a system restore to an earlier time, didnt help.This happened to my PC a few times before, and the only way I could fix it was to do a whole system recovery...but I cant find my sisters recovery disc anywhere, and I dont have a Windows XP CD for a clean install or anything, so I thought about seeing if I could activate her modem in the BIOS, but her PC is diffrent than mine and I cant seem to find it (pushing F1/other buttons while its starting up dosent do anything)

No Internet Connection - Connected My Computer Directly To The Modem

Feb 7, 2005

I have a computer that is linked to a linksys wireless router by a wireless ethernet bridge. My internet was working properly until a couple of weeks ago when it just stopped working. My internet connection says imited or no connectivity and packets are only being sent not recieved. I have connected my computer directly to the modem so it is not going through the linksys hardware at all and there is still no connection. I have checked all of my computers hardware and it says everything is working properly. Also I have made sure all the drivers are updated and working properly.

Removed Ctfmon.exe From Computer But It Came Back

Nov 8, 2006

I have something called "CTFMON.EXE" loading pertaining to Office XP. Its in my system32 sub directory. I don't have Office XP, I have Office 2000. It looks like it has to do with speech recognition, and text. Of course I removed it, but it came back. I read up on it, and it said it would come back. Do I need this? I never had this before, did I get it with the latest updates from Microsoft 2000? I've taken the check mark out, plus I have completely removed it from my start up, but it still comes back.

Can License Sticker Be Removed From Original Dell Computer

Sep 13, 2005

The seller posted a picture of the PC with OS License sticker on it. Unfortunately when I got the computer the sticker was removed. When I asked the guy why is that, he said that usually many items on eBay don't have the original picture. When I told him that I was expecting to get the PC licensed, he said that in the description clearly states the OS is optional. Well, it wasn't that clear and easy to find that, but yes there was such a statement. Now I feel ripped off. I paid about $300 for 3 years old computer
an if I have to pay for new license, that purchase becomes a little pricy. I was definitely expecting to get licensed machine.So, here is my question. Is the seller allowed to remove sticker from original Dell machine and sale it without it?

Reinstalled Can't See Modem

Aug 13, 2007

I recently reinstalled XP home on my Dell Dimension 8250 and now it won't see my Actiontec GT704-WG modem.
Modem/router working just fine, am wireless online with it on my laptop right now, all lights green.
Have checked TCP/IP and DNS to automatically detect in settings IE will not let me log onto router w/ "dslmodem" or "192.168.0.1" I get "The page cannot be displayed".When I run a repair connection on my "LAN or High-Speed Internet" I get the following message: "The following steps of the repair operation failed: Renewing the IP address. Please contact your network administrator or ISP." Device manager says network adapter is working.Have tried many, many fixes recommended on various sites and forums where problem was nearly identical, but to no avail.Have tried setting up a separate broadband connection via the connection wizard and get "Error 678" for my attempt.Have rebooted, redownloaded drivers etc. and am seeing yellow question marks on Device Manager for Ethernet controller, Multimedia Audio Controller, PCI Input Device & Texas Instruments RNDIS Adapter. I downloaded the ethernet driver from dell (orange light on ethernet cable when plugged in), but the update driver utility would NOT see/find the file no matter where it was downloaded to. Switched the router to USB cable instead. Router shows green light with either when in use. Have rebooted and replugged everything MULTIPLE times in varying order.

Modem Going Off Line

Sep 12, 2005

This may not be the NG for this but occasionally my modem goes offline for a reason which I haven't determined. The only way I know to get it back on line again is to close and restart the computer, and then I can redial.Otherwise, I can't.I feel there must be some way of re-setting the modem without having to
close down and open up again. Is there?

Modem Is Beeing Used By Another Program

Sep 17, 2005

I had this problem before and solved it. However could not remember how !!!I use a broad band for most tasks. Rarely I use my modem to send faxes via computer.Today I tried to send a fax, using my modem Zoom 56K datafax dual mode PnP.I did not manage to do it and all times computer shows a box with a standard
note advising me that "Your modem is being used by another program. Please the other program and tru again. if error persists re-start yourcomputer".There is no other program running as I have rebooted my computer several times.Diagnostics does not work at all.Eventually there is a startup program taking the modem but I do not know what it could be.Sure this situation has been occurred with some of you

My Problem: My modem can not be detected. I was attempting to load AOL 9.0 optimized on my laptop and it could not detect my modem. I tried using Windows' Modem and Internet Connection and could not Detect my modem. I installed the recommended driver from IBM and Lenovo from the MDCB3C2k, thinking my modem is a 3COM modem(I have no idea what kinda modem I have. Either 3COM or Xicro, I don't know how to tell), I installed the driver and it did nothing my modem is still undetected.note: I have used Belarc Advisor, and could not get a result for my Modem Model under Communication Devices.

CPU Utilization 100% When Connected To ISP Via Modem

Aug 10, 2005

I have had an issue just crop up on my dell dimension 4550 running xp pro, 2.53 p4 with 1 gig of ram. Seems that everything is fine until I connect to a web page. I can start IE, and everything is fine, utilization is 0-20%, but once I type in a url and hit go, cpu goes to 100%, eventually the web page loads after a few minutes or more(on dial up, 56k) where this only took seconds in the past. Have current virus defintions, running ms antispyware also current. If I finally disconnect from the internet, and close IE, cpu utilization goes back down. I gave up and restored from a ghost image from a month ago back when i know it was working, and it still is doing the same thing and it has me stumped. I was thinking maybe its having hard drive issues, but it works fine unless I connect to the internet. Also, I can simply bring up IE and it works fine, no pegged CPU, but as soon as I connect to my isp and try to load a web page, cpu goes to 100% and does not recover. Looking at task mngr, ieexplorer and explorer.exe are really the only things that are taking all the cpu time.

No Telephone Modem Installed

Jul 31, 2005

When I run the Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc) and go to Event Viewer (Local) System I noticed I have a long list of errors with a Source of Service Control Manager, Event 7001, and Property > Description of: The Remote Access Connection Manager service depends on the Telephony service which failed to start because of the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.As I have no telephone modem installed (I use cable) how do I stop this error from appearing in Event Viewer to me it makes no since to have time wasted checking on this service/event.

1394 Connection - 56k Modem - 400 Bps

Sep 4, 2005

I had the machine into the shop for days. One day I stepped in, and they had
something they said was the Internet connection [not the 56k modem] plugged in.
I never saw it used, just connected.Thinking about this since all they had was a wire was why can't I do that instead of this 56k modem ?They said something about I can if I use road runner.What are they talking about ?It shows my 1394 connection this moment as active. @ 400 bps.Before I took it to the shop, my LAN and 1394 were both disabled.I'm thinking this 1394 being enabled may be what's slowing my modem down now.If that's true I'd just as soon have the 1394 disabled again.more pix @ http://members.toast.net/cbminfo/index.html

ME To PRO Upgrade / Modem Won't Work

Feb 14, 2006

I have just upgraded to XP and can't log to internet. Phone connection fine, modem looks good in device manager. I've tried remove/install on modem , drivers , ports , ISP software. Tried downloading generic driver from agere 8.3 version. I read in some forum that Agere version 8.2 and 6.04 will work but you have to subscribe to a site like modemsite.com for a fee without knowing if it will work.I borrowed a friends external robotics modem and it worked fine. The internal lucent win v.90 k56modem worked fine with ME but will not with XP. I have been reading and searhing diligently with no luck, then I remebered this site from about 2 / 3 years ago when this forum helped me with a virus problem.
