Re: new hard drive problem ?
Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry
I agree that you have to be careful abou wrote:
With an IBM laptop –WinXP Pro: I put in a new harddrive and re-installed XP
without any problem, and then tried to re-instal AOL from a disk, and find
that the new hd doesn’t run the modem. I re-installed Word ok for example.
The line to the modem is ok. and the machine is OK. [i’m using it now, with
the old hd] SO: I can’t get online using the new drive to try to get help.
And I can’t figure how to wake up the modem using the new hd while I’m
offline– it acts like it doesn’t have a driver. Any suggestions would
certainly be appreciated. TIA. John
Your modem has nothing to do with the new hard drive. You need to
install the correct drivers for the modem (and other hardware as well).
Get the drivers from IBM/Lenovo's website for your specific model laptop.
