Not to but in, just had some extra info.  We used some Compaq Pressario 7222's
where I work that had separate ISA modems in them.  Wouldn't be suprised if
they were winmodems.  Those machines had an unbelievable amout of proprietary
stuff in them.

> Is it a Presario?  I haven't seen too many Presario's running around that had modem *cards* in them (most were integrated components).  There is a family of Compaq modems, I believe the designation is VC, that were the first of the winmodems.  AFAIK, these were all integrated though.  If you run `pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf' does the file list a modem anywhere?  What do the pnptools say that the modem is?
