Title: Motorola SM 56 and Windows XP
Post by: Anonymous on October 18, 2001, 09:57:19 PM

Hey,
I tried to install Windows XP on my Asus A1300. Everything worked great except that Windows would NOT find my Motorola SM 56 modem. I tried to install it manually with the old Asus Win2K drivers, but that only caused my system to crash very badly. Does anyone have an idea?

These are instructions from Motorola about drivers

Thanks a lot, but do these work with Asus notebooks? Maybe Asus modified the modem somehow?
