MS-DOS programs and games are not supported by
your Windows modem. You need to upgrade your MS-
DOS program to a Windows one. Note also that
Windows 3.1 programs may also require an upgrade to
a newer release.
• Perhaps your telephone line is not connected cor-
rectly. Check that you have connected the cables
correctly. You can also connect a standard handset
to the wall socket to check whether you have a
standard dial tone.
• You may, however, have a conflict between the
PBX (Private Branch eXchange) and your modem.
Solve this by connecting the modem to a phone
line that comes directly from the telephone opera-
tor. By doing this you also benefit by having maxi-
mum speed.
It is likely that your fax application has been set up so
