reboot-
you've perked my curiosity!
how do icons on the taskbar use resources that the modem needs?
I'm still having trouble with my ESS PCI 56K modem and might give that a try too (see thread: modem problem: crash after disconnect). I've already got it on its own IRQ and exchanged it for the same card: same problem.
The guy at compusa suggested that it may be a software problem with my ISP and that I should "get new initialization strings" from them, but it still smells like resource allocation to me.

thanks
