"This driver works well with WindowsXP SP2. By using the supplied driver for AcerModem 56 Surf modem on the CD, I couldn't make it work. The problem was with the Modem Audio Device. Windows did not find any driver the modem wave audio device on this modem."

"This is definitely a quirky weird driver. It worked perfectly and without any issues for me in Win2000 however it was a bugger to get working in WinXP (on the same computer).

I tried many times to make it work, disabling "wait for dial tone" did nothing. I tried all combinations of turing off the computer, turning off the modem, restarting with modem on, rest

"Yes this driver works ok for me in WinXP-pro The only quirk is that you MUST have the modem powered up while Windows loads, otherwise it wont even dial. Apart from that I can turn the modem on and off once Windows has loaded and it still works every time. It's not so bad. Listen to the advise of Peter-M below."

"The driver only works if 1. you turn on the modem before the computer 2. if it gets through to the server first time. to get around these, if you get the message 'no modem' or such, go to properties, right click and go to install hardware. it will find the modem and tell you it's ok. go back and log on. if you dont get through the first time, turn off the modem and turn

My Acer II modem was the only thing that wouldn't work after the dust settled, no matter how hard I tweaked. I downloaded the driver from this forum and readded the modem (thanks for the tips provided by others ie

Unzip the file. then add a new modem from the -Modem tab- in -Phone and Modem Options- in -Control Panel-. when asked to search for the driver browse to the folder where you unziped the zip file. then keep going with installation. Ignore the unsign

If you haven't yet updated your modem's firmware or you just want to check it, use the Flash utility Applet 1.2 included in ame-mx00-all.zip
