Assuming that you have installed the correct drivers, and the jack
connector is seated properly, there is another thing to try. I had the
same problem. You might have an interrupt conflict. I don't know what
PCMCIA cards you have installed, if any. I had this problem.
Apparently, the MWAVE device uses ( I think ) 3 interrupts. One for
sound blaster emulation, one for the DSP, and one for the modem ( I'm not
sure why ). In my case, two of the three where fine; I would get the
systems sounds, some lights on the modem would flash, but no dial tone or
connection.
Go into the driver managerand chekc ALL of the branches. You may have an
interrupt confict..
