I have windows95 and windows98-my modem speaker volume seems to have gotten quite a lot louder...where is this adjusted..there is an area which appears to be dimmed/greyed out in modem properties-is that where it is controlled-how do I get rid of the geyed effect to make it live?

It is greyed out because your using a generic driver for you modem and not the driver for the modem it self, the generic driver will allow the modem to function but not give you advanced options.  Install the proper driver for your modem and the slider will appear and not be greyed out.  What modem do you have I can help you find a driver for it.

You may also control your modem speaker by adding the command to lower the speaker volume, or turn it off.  This is done in your modem setup by going to properties, connection, advanced, extra modem settings. Add the ATL1 comand there, or ATL0.

Thanks but unfortunately shintansdas87 did not help-it was greyed out in both places!!! but I think that a subsequent answer will help me...many thanks.
If he didn't help you, why did you award the points to him?  I'm confused, maybe you menat to say that shintansdas87 did help you, so you awarded him.
one other thing you can do is (internal?) just turn the speakers off
