    Is your modem detected in "device manager"? Is the line plugged into the proper port on the card? Did you install drivers for the card ?

    If your using windows then you can get them from a disk. But you need to go to "device manager" and see if it is seeing the card at all. Or if there is a triangle next to it (indicates an error).
