    Vista Beta Not Recognizing Modem At All

    I've just installed the public beta release onto my D drive, keeping XP on
    my C drive. All seemed to install fine. But Vista doesn't recognize that my
    desktop computer has a modem. So I'm not able to dial up in order to
    activate the beta within the first 14 days. Any ideas on how I can get Vista
    to know that my computer has an internal dialup modem?

    Thanks for the help!

    Jason;
    Check with the modem manufacturer about Vista support.
    Try Windows XP drivers from the modem manufacturers website.

    Activate by phone if possible.
