I have a ACER 1100 (5mb ram, 330Mb Hd), but I had a HP Vectra 25C before and the same thing happend there, so it's unlikely to be some kind of hardware incompatibility. I use Lightspeed 2400 (Hayes comp.) modem with a standard modem cable (wich has been checked by a local guru btw). The dip swich settings for the modem are: (1-10 1=on, 0=off) 0010000100. AFTER somebody has dialed in the modem continues to respond incoming calls and I can "cu" to the computer I usually poll, that works fine, the only thing that does not work properly is uucico.
