2882.0. "Modem disconnects on download" by TALLIS::KOCH (Kevin Koch TAY1-2 DTN227-4043) Thu Mar 27 1997 15:50

     My BIL upgraded to Win95 and now whenever he tries to download a file 
from Netscape, the modem hangs up.  All other aspects of his web browsing 
appear to be normal.  Any ideas?

    What video card does he have? S3 chipset? Modem at COM4 by chance? If
    yes to the latter 2, suggestion is to jumper modem to COM3 (if not in
    use), delete current modem from device manager (then re-jumper to
    different COM port), then add new hardware and it should be ok. I had
    similar problem just moving the connecting to window.
