NT will not detect modem.
I have just upgraded to a new computer with a Amptron PM9700 motherboard and an AMD 233mkz CPU.
I have a Diamond Supra 56i SP modem that worked fine in NT on my old computer (Dell P133c).

Put the modem in another slot and try again

The chance of this solving the problem is "zero".
Use Windows NT to display the resources
used by the other devices, and to identify
the conflict.
If that doesn't help, go to your "hardware" page,
and remove COM1 and COM2 and any MODEM information.
Consider removing the sound-card, too.
Shutdown, and reboot, and see what gets detected. Report back.

Otta,
I used winmsd to display the IRQ's, I/O, DMA there were no conflicts. If there is another place to look please tell me, as to hardware I went to control panel and removed evrything no to no avail again if there is someplace else please tell me.

I suggested putting the modem in another slot because the authour of the question has bought a cheap shitty motherboard and their was a slight possibility that the slot was faulty

rosscoe,
I tried placing the card in another slot it didn't do anything

For each of your current devices,
look at the "properties",
and then the "resources",
and please list which IRQs are being used,
i.e., IDE disk controller(s) use IRQ 14 (and 15),
sound-card uses 5 or 7, et cetera,
to see which IRQs are being used.
Don't trust WINMSD's report -- it's usually incomplete.

I had the same prob on my usr sportster modem, i turned plug and play off and installed it with jumpers on com2!
Turn plug and play off in the bios! (PNP OS = No)
Check in the startup screen if your comport is detected!
If it's detected in the startup screen (with your harddisk settings and par port and memory ...) It should work in NT

OTTA,
You mention hardware, devices, properties. I can get to the ones for the hard drives thru SCSI apadters but how do you get to the others. I know how in 95 but to do the same in NT is something I don't know. I looked at devices column in WINMSD and there are no dups on any IRQ, DMA, I/O, or Memory
