A couple of ideas, the Sportster is a class 1 modem, is this the version
you have running of GPFax? Have you tried running something like DosTrace or
SnoopDos to see what is being called and what is happening? Did you use (or
has the modem config changed) from what is in the back of the manual? My
modem is a Sportster 28.8k v34+ and I had some problems with the config
changing when I closed the 'Environment screen' in GPFax. Also, my son
'experiments' at times and has been known to change my modem config by
accident (from my term program no less). Have you completely uninstalled
GPFax and tried re-installing it from scratch (including letting GPFax
query the modem during the install)?
