I just bought a brand new Acer Aspire 6920-6621, uninstalled the Vista Home Premium and installed 32bit Vista Ultimate. For some reason, the 56K modem is no longer recognized. The drivers provided from the Acer website do nothing to solve the problem.

This issue is time sensitive, and ideally needs to be solved within the next week.

...and to avoid all those pesky 'why are you still using dial-up' questions - this computer was sent to someone in another country where they don't have access to anything but dial-up.

I would appreciate any help you could provide.

Try getting the Drivers from the Modem's Manufacture?

Only problem is it's not listed in the technical specifications that came with the PC, and Acer's tech support is pretty much useless. Any idea on what the manufacturer would be, or where to find this information?
