Onboard Modem prob

Hello i have a :-
Gigabyte GA-6WMM7 (REV 1.5) with latest BIOS
it has an 82801L Chipset
Windows 2000 (SP4 ONLY installed) (No updates (Want to solve this first in case i
have to reinstall windows)
No other software (see above)
The problem is split into two parts.
1. When the onboard modem is enabled it is only recognised as a unknown PCI device
2. in devmgmt.msc (device manager i get a device in the Sound, video and game controllers
called a
AC'97 Driver for intel(r) 82801AB controller
This device has a code 10 fault
so far i have tried the autoinst,.exe from intel (which has fixed similar problems
with different machines before but no luck this time
I can't see a seperate modem driver in the intel site that applies to this board.
p.s if i can;t get a modem driver that's not so bad but i do need shot of this error
message in device manager as this computer is to be sold and it would just lame to
have an error message as standard!!

Some of the MB have a very proprietary modems installed. (OEM type devices )
Goto the Mfg. of the MB and get the driver for it.
Or download aida32 (see below ▼) and install it.
Then look for the name and model number of the MB/modem and take that info to driverguide.com
and get the drivers for the modem.
Also do the same for the AC97 onboard sound device.
Then use that file to Update the one you are now using.
-----------------
aida32 download From:
This is the one I like best (ESI) ,it will show your software/cd lic.numbers for
software you have installed on the machine,and you can copy it and print it out for
safe keeping.
Aida32 - Enterprise System Information 3.93
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download183.html
Size: 3.1Mb
Personal System Information 3.93
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download181.html
Size: 2.9 Mb
unzip it to C:\Aida32 and then run the aida32.exe to run the program
Or Start/Run C:\Aida32\aida32.exe
Also drivers from:
http://www.microsoft.com/hcl/
Support\Hcl.txt
New ver. of aida32 called Everest Home Edition
It has a installer and uninstaller with it..
But it's not as good as the ESI 3.93
from below:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181
------------------------
Plus you can use this tool to do it all for you.
It's not Free but it works great.(free for 30days)

case of getting the generic ones! Anyway i disabled the Motherboard AC'97 devices
and all errors disappeded but the onboard Yamaha Sound card is stiil active and making
noise! sooooo.... the AC'97 (sound at least) is seperate from the Yamaha soooo..
The AC'97 "sound" is null!! I wanna build my own motherboard!!

That's great,just a note.the Yamaha Sound card would be a PCI type not a onboard
type.
And your right to disable the AC97 onboard type if you using the Yamaha as the default
one .
" I wanna build my own motherboard" that's always a good way to go then you know
for sure what you have from the getgo and the drivers to make it rock.
Have a good one Dave

Okay it turns out the OEM AMR soft modem was replaced (well it must have been) anyway
by looking at the chip it is a HAMR5302 so after googling it i got the driver and
now it works!! hurrah!!
So the moral is to check the chip not the packard bell oem drivers!! p.s is it worth
selling a Office 2000 standard Genuine disk? it came with it!

If you don't have a need for it sell it,e.b.a.y. for what you want to get for it.
Check the other adds for a fair price and then dump it.
Have a good one.
