26 tab and read the Conflicting Device List. If a conflict is present, uncheck the box “U se automatic settings ” and select a configuration that does not cause conflicts. Manually change the IR Q settings if needed (see your Windows 95 on-line help file for a more detailed discussion on changing these settings).
27 sources. The modem needs one IR Q and one COM P ort in order to function. (R ead your computer user ’ s manual for information on how to invoke and use the BIOS setup).
28 Communications Software Does Not W ork Some communications software packages need to be configured to the same COM P ort and or IR Q as the modem. See “Installing the M odem ” for information on how to determine your COM P ort and IRQ number . The communications software you are using may not support this modem.
29 so on. The modem attempts to make the highest connect rate that your telephone line can support at the time of negotiation. If the line conditions (noise, telephone company routing, etc.) won ’ t allo w a high data rate connection, then the modem will automatically connect at the most reliable rate.
30 mentioned key combinations work or no message is displayed while the computer is starting up, please refer to your computer system manual for instructions on how to enter the BIOS setup.
