Modem: WebSTAR 2203
Operating System: Windows 98 Second Edition

Today I actually managed to think a little, and, after seeing the advantages of having the network and the internet working at the same time, I decided to plug my modem into my USB "hole" (what's the name for it ? ) and install the drivers from the CD I got with it.

15 seconds later (surprize, surprize) I noticed that Windows can't find the drivers on the CD. :blink: I read the manual and noticed where the *.inf files should be on the CD. They are not missing or anything else. I restart, select "automatically search for new drivers" and over there select CD....nothing. The search came up empty.

Eh, it happens. "back, "back", "select drivers from the list", "other devices". A list appears where I can either select "unknown device" or select "have disk". I select the one with the disk and ... "windows cannot find a disk....". :not_ok: Time for browse, drives: D. Oh, look. Those *.inf files. I opened the one for my modem type (from what I read in the readme) and ..."that file does not contain information about your hardware". I tried opening the other inf files, but the same thing appeared.

How could I actually install those drivers ? Windows seems not to recognise them. :help:
