Dell Optiplex GX100 modem issues

SERVICE TAG:8DRK701

I had to reinstall the operating system and log bck on to my cable external madem and will not recognize the modem. There is data passing through but will not recognize the service. Do I need a setting repired or does the internal madem need re-installed. The resource cd does not have the driver I need to recognize whtever modem is inside?

First I wouldlike to thank you for the speedy reply. I have installed the 2 drivers but Istill cant get my CABLE modem to be recognized? I hve a laptop I just connected and it worked off the cable modem fine? It's like I am missing an ethernet driver that will not let the CD install the modem? Every time I try to let AOL detect the modem it only sees a PHONE MODEM?? Any more suggestions? Thanks

One more question. Under Device manager the only item left with a yellow (?) is titled PCI Ethernet Controller???? Is there a driver for that to use. Is this causing my issue with the cable modem?

Thanks

AOL disables aLL compeditors ability to access the network and or use anything other than AOL.

This means if you install aol dial up it will disable your network fOREVER.


You must format C: and reinstall the os to fix the AOL problem.

AOL 5.0 and up Permanently Break any other ISP on your system including but not limited to Corporate LAN access etc.

Uhappy AOL users Seek 8 billion dollars in damages.

http://www.cnn.com/2000/TECH/computing/02/02/aol.lawsuit.02/

AOL has said previously that complaints about interference by its software were overblown. But some AOL customers and competitors contend the product also damages computer programs unrelated to Internet service.

The suit, alleging a deceptive trade practice and violation of computer-tampering laws, seeks damages of up to $1,000 for each of the approximately 8 million people who have downloaded the software.

The civil action was filed earlier this week in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Virginia, near AOL's corporate headquarters. It follows scores of complaints lodged by customers of the online service about problems they encountered after installing version 5.0.
