Before you begin installing your modem, run the following tests first:
Identify an available COM port address and IRQ (interrupt) for your modem.
Do you have either a sound card, a network card, a scanner card, or a bus mouse? If
you do so, find out their IRQ settings from your computer dealer or from the hardware
manuals.

button. Then when it asks, click on "

test to make sure that it was actually disabled correctly.

Refer to Chapter 7 to continue the installation of the modem
7.2 FOR WINDOWS 3.1x or DOS
Turn your computer on and go to the "C" prompt (C:\>).
If you have MS-DOS 6.0, or higher, or MS-Windows 3.1x, type MSD (Microsoft Diagnostic)
at "C" prompt. This will not work if you only have Windows 95, (see above section).
MSD is going to give you information on your computer system. Look and see if you
can locate an entry call "COM Port." There should be a number right next to that entry
identifying the number of COM ports you have. Write the number down on a piece of
paper.
Press "C" to go into the COM Port screen.
