- There is a workaround for this. Look in in your C:\WINDOWS\INF directory
- and locate a file named MDMROCK.INF. First, make a backup of this file.
- Next, load MDMROCK.INF into a text editor and do a search for ";"
- (parenthesis included) and replace with "" (remove semicolon).
-
- the original line:
-
- HKR, Settings, DialSuffix,, ";"
-
- should now be:
-
- HKR, Settings, DialSuffix,, ""
-
- Save the changes to the file MDMROCK.INF. Go into your control panel,
- double-click on the Modems icon, delete the entry for the Cardinal modem
- then readd it. You should now to able to hear the dialing, connect
- sequence, busy signal, etc.
