Appendix A:

Removing a PC’s Internal Modem

If your PC does not already have an internal modem in-
stalled, or if you are replacing an external modem, you do
not need this section.

Note: Although you do not have to remove your internal

modem, we recommend that you do so. Removing
your old modem frees up resources for other inter-
nal devices you may want to install in the future.

1

Before you take out the modem, you must inform

Windows that you are going to remove it:

Follow these steps:

Click on Start and point to Settings. Click on

Control Panel. When the Control Panel displays,
double-click on the Modems icon.

Now click on the Remove button. Click OK to con-
firm that you are removing the modem.

Windows has now been informed of your intention to
remove the old modem.

2

Remove the old modem as follows:

Shut down and turn off the computer.

Remove any cables connected to the modem.

Open the case of the computer.

Remove the screw that attaches the modem
bracket to the computer.

Pull the modem out of its slot.

Replace the case of the computer.

You may now return to Chapter 1: Setting Up Your

USB Faxmodem on page 6 to continue with the instal-

lation.
