I'm running a Compaq Presario 5868 with WindowsXP Home Edition and SP2
installed.

I also use a dial-up connection.

Whenever I hang up and try to connect again I get an error message
telling
me the modem is off the hook. Error 676. When I reboot everything is
fine
until I hang up again and get the same error message.

Didn't have the problem before SP2.

Any suggestions?

Warmest regards,

Joe


Check Device Manager. There is a possibility that SP2 failed to
install the correct driver. It's done this in several reported cases.
