• Equium A60-191: number of Modem - only an analog phone lines are supported

  My Equium A60 has been turned on when lightning struck nearby and caused the power supply turn off and turn back on.

  The OS is XP Home and my ISP is AOL. When I try to access the Net with DUN, I get the repeated error message:

  "Connected phone line is not compatible with this modem. Only analog phone lines are supported. »

  My desktop computer, which also uses AOL, always connects to the same phone line with no problems.

  I restarted the A60 several times; changed and I tried the 2 phone connection cables - both work; the phone line works very well; I reinstalled the driver provided on this site; removed the tick from the box that says to wait for the telephone line; verified that the modem is working and on the Device Manager list. All this is in vain.

  Convenience store suggests that COM 3 is not enabled. I don't see that com 3 listed in the device under Ports Manager.

  I tried Google and ASK with the error message. There is not a lot of posts, and it seems that the Toshiba modem is actually an Agere. This fact seems to be the object of some of the complaints.

  Finally, I uninstalled the driver/modem, AOL and another DUN connection. I restarted and went through the process of installing AOL and "new hardware". While the modem is on and allegedly working... I am still unable to connect to the Net. I reinstalled an additional 'pay as you go' ISP. When I try to dial a number on which it generates error 680. It does this even when the box is unchecked, to wait for a dial tone.

  I would be very grateful if someone could help it. I'm out of ideas.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  You are right, the modem supports the Modem Agere chip.
  You won't find the COM3 in the Device Manager for the modem uses a non-real com port. It s virtual com port.

  I think you should start the diagnostic tool test and check if the Modem has no malfunction.
  Additional you must remove the connection in the region Select utility and after restarting again create a new.

  I also found useful Microsoft article on troubleshooting network and dial-up connections.

  and you'll find info on the error of DUNS 680:

• How can I report a phone call about a person borrows an identity a Microsoft Technician

  August 18 at 14:49, I received a call from someone claiming to be a Microsoft technician. I barely understood what they said because there accent of the Middle East, but he said that it would be just a matter of time before my computer would crash because of the amount of errors on my computer. He then asked me to start my computer and to now hold the window by pressing the letter R and type eventvwr , and then press ok. A screen came up and on the upper left corner, was asked to support customs seen by double witch clicking grew to administrative activities and double-click on it. I was then invited to watch the center of the screen and above and asked if I could see administrative events and how much was there. I told her that there are 528 events. He then told me to scroll down on the list and all I could see were triangles (warnings) yellow and Red errors, 528 combined overall. He then told me that this list would continue to multiply until my computer would crash. He began to talk about a guarantee of microsoft which would prevent this list to build up again in the future. I told her that I had never heard of a software microsoft warranty. I asked him how this warranty was going to cost me, and he said it would be $ 109 for three years. First, I need to transfer control of my computer to a microsoft technical repairs and that I must leave my computer for a few hours, the time required to carry out all the repairs but first, I have to go to a website called www.ammyy.com . On this site, that I was told that I would be able to transfer control, and when repairs were fix, the technician would present me with a form, I have to fill in for Microsoft software guarantee for an amount of $ 109. I was wrong as well transfer controls because I started to suspect a fraud and I told him that I would not go further with that and that I was going to hang up the phone. His appeal is still on my phone but the number is not available so I can't remind him or provide Microsoft with phone number here. I hope that this information will be useful to Microsoft.

  Kind regards.

• No sound in 3g 2 files, error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player does not support the format you are trying to play. »

  Original title: cannot get audio from video .3g2 (Windows 7)

  I have a number of videos that were recorded on a Motorola phone to format .3g2, when I played against them in windows XP Pro using what was the most recent media player, they played very well and the audio was present.

  I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and have found that videos will play with media player sound is not output.

  I tried different players like VLC (same result, no sound) and came across one called SUPER from erightsoft which indeed works and allows me to re - encode to .wmv BUT when I do and you try to read the .wmv I encounter an error:

  "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player does not support the format you are trying to play. »

  When I clikc on help, I am led to a page with links on THIS forum.

  So here I am.

  Can someone explain what is happening, why it happens and how / if I can convert them into a playable (with audio) .wmv friendly format?

  Thank you

• For some contacts, phone numbers are not displayed

  Hello

  Happy to have the Atrix on gingerbread. It solves my problem of bluetooth. now I walked into something else, and I wonder if you can help...

  1. I noticed that for some contacts who have 4 phone numbers and 2 emails, phone numbers are jamed all together in a single line, rather than a list. no idea how to solve this problem? Moreover, contacts are already subject in my mail to google contacts.

  2. how to add a voice tag to a name/contact? I found my atrix had trouble recognizing a name and always messed with other contacts. So I want to find a way to make it easier for the phone to recognize when I say "Call xxx" (somewhat unusual for some non-English names)...

  I thank very you much for your help in advance.

  The best

  Jason
