ok i found out what the problem is! com port 3 is having an error.
here what it sez. Windows cannot determine the settings for this device.
Consult your documentation that came with the device *exuse me smarty pants computer.
ITS A PORT IT DONT GOT NO MANUAL. sometimes technology SUCKS.
Use the resourse tab to set the configuration where woudl this be? i didnt see one on the hardware wizard.error code 34. tell me how to fix this, then i presume u add the modem to the list and then run the ISP provider cd again to see if it can detect a connection. OR if i could switch the port from 3 to 2 on my computer only because their is 3 comps connected to the modem.

In this case I would try running the setup disc for your modem--there are hundreds of these ports in Windows see here: TCP/IP Ports

Re: Com Port 3 Problems...
HI XPforever.
What is this error in reference to? What are you trying to do that gives you this error? Most modern day computers come with COM1 and LPT1. COM3 is usually an internal dialup modem.
