    I am working on a guys computer and his modem is bad. He is running a P-100 and was running a ISA 33.6 US Robotics modem. My question is, is there a PCI modem that will work with this OLD system. Most of the ones I see now days require MMX. Upgrading the system is out of the question...simply because he will not do it. Thanks for the help.

    I 2nd the motion put forth by luqa

    And add. If you get an External now, you will have it for future use on a newer machine also. Where as a PCI might not work in another machine.

    Xbot - you won't get any better advice anywhere at twice the price.
