- I know that in regedit '95 has 'built in modems strings' to use with your
- modem. Now lets say that you are having connection problems with an
- on-line service and you decide to remove the modem sting that they are
- using and let '95 use its own. I did that and then went into regedit just
- to see what it was using. Found 2 directories that contained modem
- strings. So I decide to add a M0 to the string to turn off the speaker
- but that did not work neither did L0. Then I started to delete the modem
- strings in the regedit area and I still signed on with no problems,
- Hyperterminal would not work. Which leeds to one of two things, could
- Win'95 on startup preload a modem string into memory or do the on-line
- services have built in modem string that they are using.
-
- Any ideas?
