There is more than one version of the FaxWorks Program on the IBM site.
Be sure that you got the one that is specifically for the 701's. I
formatted my hard drive and installed Win 95 and then downloaded the 701
version of FaxWorks from IBM and have had no problems with it
what-so-ever. Be sure you chnange back the commdrv= line in the sys.ini
file that faxworks changed.

Everything worked well except my modem. The machine specifications state that the computer has speakerphone capabilities, but the Windows 95 software I installed only detected data and fax capabilities. I also tried Windows 3.11 software with no luck. After several other ideas I posted a message on IBM's AOL forum and a tech answer saying that I needed to use the special version of Faxworks that came with the computer. I downloaded the program from IBM's website and installed it only to run into more problems. First, Faxworks would case a GPF every time I tried to run it and second, Faxworks adds its own comm.drv to the INI files disabling my dial-up connections.
