Anthony,

Take a look at this site.

http://www.modemsite.com/56k/trouble.asp

You could try removing the modem in Device Manager and force Windows to redetect 
the device & reinstall the software for it. Start with the onboard Modem.

Be sure to remove ALL modems in DeviceManager, then restart your computer.  Yes I 
mean ALL.
