Verifying the Windows 95/98/Me Configuration
Windows assigns an interrupt request (IRQ) number for your modem. Because the number of IRQs is
limited, a computer with several accessories may not have an available IRQ for your new modem. In
that case, you may have to decide which of your other accessories you can modify or do without.
Be aware that resource settings should be changed only by users with expert knowledge of computer
hardware and hardware configurations.
Note: Changing resource settings improperly can disable your hardware and can cause your computer
to malfunction or be inoperable.
Use the following procedure to check the assignments Windows has made for your modem:
1. Click Start | Settings | Control Panel. Double-click the System icon.
2. When the System Properties dialog box appears, click the Device Manager tab. A list of device types
appears.
3. Double-click Modem to display a list of modems installed in your computer.
4. Double-click Multi-Tech Systems MT5634ZPX-PCI. The Modem Properties dialog box appears.
5. Click the Resources tab and note the Conflicting Device list. If there is a conflict between your
modem and another device in your computer, the information appears here. For help in resolving a
conflict, click Start | Help, and then search the Help index for the Hardware Conflict Troubleshooter.
When finished, click OK to exit the System Properties dialog box.
6. In Control Panel, double-click the Modems icon.
7. When the Modems Properties dialog box appears, click the Diagnostics tab. A list of ports and
devices appears.
8. Highlight the COM port associated with the MT5634ZPX-PCI-V92. Click More Info. Clicking More
Info causes Windows to send commands to and receive responses from the modem. The system also
displays information about the modem’s COM port.
9. Write down the modem’s port, interrupt, address, and highest speed. You will need this information
to configure any legacy (nonWindows) communications software you install.
Port: COM ______ Interrupt: _______ Address: _________ Speed: _________
10. Click the General tab. Select Multi-Tech Systems MT5634ZPX-PCI, and click Properties to review
the modem’s default communications settings. Do not change any settings unless you have special
requirements.
11. Click Dialing Properties and review your dialing settings. If you are required to dial 9 to get an
outside line, type 9 in the local and long distance boxes. If you have Call Waiting service, disable
Call Waiting to prevent it from interrupting a data or fax transmission. When you are finished, click
OK to exit the dialog box.
