Modem Help
I'm getting an error 633 on my Dell PC when I try to connect to the internet (I have dial up). The error says the modem is in use or not configured properly. This all started when I left my internet connected one evening during a thunderstorm ( I wasn't home) and when I came back to my computer, the internet was disconnected with the error message up. I have already called my ISP, and they told me to reinstall the modem drivers. I did that with no luck.
My guess is the modem is shot. So my question is, how do I get it fixed & how much will it cost me?

It is likely the modem is installed in a PCI slot. See the service manual for your system at:

Look under the hearding - Cards.
You should be able to find a new PCI modem for less than about $15 at places like Circuit City, CompUSA, Frey's BestBuy, etc.
