Configuring Windows 2000 Professional
Step 1
Install your modem into an available PCI slot. (See "Do This First" for
important pre-installation information.)
Step 2
Insert your modem's installation CD-ROM into your computer's CD-ROM
drive.
Step 3
On the Windows Desktop, right-click the icon for My Computer. On the
menu that appears, click Properties. The system properties dialog box will
appear. Click the Hardware tab to bring it to the front, then click the De-
vice Manager button.
Step 4
In Device Manager, click the plus (+) sign next to Modems to expand that
section of the listing. A listing for LT Win Modem should appear.
Note:
Windows did not display anything when you started up your computer to
acknowledge the fact that you had installed a new modem. This was be-
cause it recognized the modem as one corresponding with one of the ge-
neric drivers that come as part of Windows 2000, in this case the "LT Win
Modem" driver. In the steps that follow we will effectively tell Windows to
use the Actiontec driver instead, which will allow you to take full advantage
of the modem's features and capabilities.
