Is your fax setup in Win98?  Go to Printers and see if the fax is there.  If not you'll need to reinstall your fax program.  When running MS Works, and you choose to fax, is the choice there to pick the fax?

Windows 98, by default doesn't incorporate the same fax services or windows messaging that Windows 95 did. But, they are included in a subdirectory of the tools directory on the Win98 CD-Rom. If you install fax services from there, that might fix your problem.

Edited text of question
Both recomendations followed but the problems still.....
What are the results of Steve's recommendation? That's the true answer to your problem.
Sorry Steve, your question, I'll butt out.
Actually chris, both of our recommendations were tried and it didn't work...any other ideas?
Check and see if your system has two modems setup.  Your program maybe set to use an in-active modem.
Go to control panel, network, and make sure you have all the nework adapters,clients,and protocals installed.  Win98 changes them when you upgrade.
