Alright, so I've noticed XP doesn't play the sound of your phone or whatever when you're connecting to the internet on 56k. That might not be such a bad thing, but how could I turn it on if I wanted?
 
Go into your network connections. Right click your isp, then configure the modem. :D
 
It depends on you modem. Some have a little speaker on board and go from very quiet to ear splittingly loud.

Others use directX to make the noise. there is normally a Control panel option for your modem so you can turn this on or off.
 
/me flashes back to when mom used to yell at me at 12 am because of those modem noises, or should i say music to some of us ! ahhh those days ! :D

Allow Modem Speaker is checked... still no sound. Oh well. :-/
 
You can enter code directly into the extra command line on the modem properties page, sorry cant remember code :(

But most people switch it off anyway!

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(
