    old modem new operating system

    Hi all, I have been trying to get my ancient external Tornado 56.6k data fax voice modem working with my new Win2008R2 server and Cortex. I have had to install via a USB to serial converter but managed to set it all up. I can query the modem in the device manager and use the windows dialer to dial out. It is set up as a generic 56.6k modem. Cortex, however, does not recognise that a compatible voice modem is installed (when trying to access the behaviour menu of the telephone I get the error "there are no voice modems fitted in the system". I'm guessing this is because the standard 56.6k modem setup in device manager does not utilise voice functions, only data. Does anyone have any experience of this and how I could overcome or is it new modem time... cheers, Doug
