If your internal modem is a pci or an isa then you would simply remove the
card from your computer, if it is part of the motherboard, then you will
have to check your instruction book for the motherboard. If you are like me,
you don't have any instruction, so you will just have to wing it, possibly
you could find out more about your motherboard on the internet. Let me know
how you come out.Carl
