Hello,
	I have had a friend post numerous messages about overclocking and what the
best modem is. I first want to thank all the people that responded. You
were a big help! When I asked about what modem is best, I already had one
that is giving me trouble. I had an old 14,400 and bought a MWave�
modem(MWave� is a type of multimedia modem that IBM developed). This didn't
work out because the driver used to run the modem(and all other components
on the card, such as sound blaster and midi) conficted with most of my
software. It was a good card, but I couldn't get it to work with my
software for anything. IBM wouldn't help me because the modem was
manufactured by another company!!! I have heard that MWave is new and that
driver updates are coming, but I don't want to go through the hassle of
having to pull my Soundblaster� and modem out, installing the driver and
fixes, and who knows what else just to see if it will work(If it doesn't, I
would have to reverse the whole process!). So, I'm asking for anyones
opinion on MWave� modems. should I or should I not try to get it to work?
If you want to tell me about a modem you think is great, please tell me to.
				Thanks ahead of time,
			Gary Schrader
