This problem occurs when a pre-Windows 95 service provider appears in the
TELEPHON.INI file and precedes the Windows 95 Universal Modem Driver
(UNIMDM). A pre-Windows 95 service provider is one that was built to the
Windows 3.1 TAPI, rather than the Windows 95 TAPI.

To work around this problem, perform the following steps:
| 1. | Open the TELEPHON.INI file that is in your Windows directory with a text
editor (such as WordPad).
|
| 2. | The Providers section may appear as follows:
[Providers]
NumProviders=2
NextProviderID=3
ProviderID0=1
ProviderFilename0=ATSP.TSP
ProviderID1=2
ProviderFilename1=UNIMDM.TSP
Change the above to:
[Providers]
NumProviders=2
NextProviderID=3
ProviderID1=1
ProviderFileName1=ATSP.TSP
ProviderID0=2
ProviderFileName0=UNIMDM.TSP
|
The above changes inform the TAPI.DLL file that UniModem is the first
provider.
