First download the latest Windows2000 drivers at:
http://e-www.motorola.com/products/softmodem/support/software.html

Now follow these steps:

1. remove the modem from the system in the control panel;

2. start "regedit.exe";

3. find and DELETE all the entrys that have to do with "sm56" and "motorola";

4. reboot the system;

5. ignore all the "Found new Hardware" messages;

6. press WindowsKey + Pause, goto Hardware Tab, Device Manager, properties of PCI Communications Device,
and click on driver tab and UPDATE;

7. to update de driver you have to inform the folder with the unzipped modem driver, win2k-pci or win2k-pci2;

8. after installing the drivers, go to c:/windows/motorola and run sm56hlpr.exe, sm56set.exe and sm56.reg
(it´s very important that you run sm56.reg and update your registry);

9. be sure there are no IRQ conflicts: use msinfo32.exe and Device Manager to find out

One small problem with that last response

The Motorola site for SoftModem Drivers is CLOSED!. They no longer deal or support their drivers, so this means that unless any people out there make their own dedicated SM56 modem drivers pages, I suggest we buy new modems.

Goto http://e-www.motorola.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=SM56PCIDFV&nodeId=01M0yyK3NVV you will have the choice of either one large file or two smaller ones to put on floppy disk. Create a new folder in your windows directory named motorola. Unzip the files into this folder. Run your install new modem and send it to this file for setup.

Good luck. After many attempts to install this is the way that finally worked for me.
