Hello I was wondering if anyone can help...I have a few year-old IBM Aptiva, model 2186. I don't use its speakers or microphone anymore (hardly use it at all, really) and I recently decided to install windows 98 on it, even though it originally came with windows 95. Even though the installation went smoothly after re-formatting the hard drive, and windows 98 found all of the appropriate drivers, my Aptiva thinks that there is no modem in it. Under device manager, I can clearly see that the windows 98 has correctly identified my modem. I have made sure that this is not a hardware problem, but what else can I do?
