Installing ThinkPad ACP Modem update for Windows 2000 (ThinkPad 600, 600E,
and 770 Series models)
The internal ACP Modem is included on the Windows 2000 Professional CD and will be
automatically installed by the Windows 2000 Setup program. This native built-in driver
provides the "standard" modem support on your ThinkPad. Under most circumstances, the
user will not need to update this driver. However, if you need to run an application program
that requires the use of wake-up (Wake-On Ring) capability from an incoming modem call
while the system is in Standby mode, the standard native driver will not support this. For
example, Windows 2000 Professional provides the capability to send and receive fax to/from
your computer. By using the Wake-On-Ring feature, you can receive an incoming FAX
when the computer is in Standby mode when this updated device driver is installed. In order
for your ThinkPad to support WOR, you will need to install this updated ACP Modem driver.
