Does anyone know how to install a modem in Win2k? I managed to add a com port but the Control Panel says that it can't start the port with a code 10 error. There are no IRQ or Address conflicts. So when I try to install a modem I get to the selection of the Com port and am stuck. Can anyone help?

You need to turn Plug and Play OS off in your BIOS.
