Laptop worked fine until a problem caused me to fdisk and format the hardrive. Upon
re-installing winxp, I had
four unknown devices. downloaded drivers from support and all went away and worked
except the modem which installed itself on com3. Cannot change it to com1 because
it's being used by "another" device.
Have fdisk'ed again, worked up from win98, win2k and
back into winxp to no avail. have moved modem to com2 with no help. Modem says its
okay but computer freezes when diagnosis is used and I must
remove power to get a re-boot. Laptop is a gateway
1500 and works great except for modem.
