Vista dial modem

I've received many messages from users who have tried many modems - none of them work. The good news is that modems are relatively inexpensive now, and there are modems that are based upon the latest chipsets from Conexant, Agere and USR that will work.

But, check first! Actually, if you're thinking of upgrading to Vista, may I suggest you just wait. The operating system upgrade is expensive; there is really very little that's actually been improved despite the hype you may hear - the improvements for the most part are marginal , and there's a lot more than modems that will be broken if Vista is your only operating system.

A fair amount of software as well as other hardware won't work correctly or at all with Vista. See, for example this Wikipedia article on Criticism of Windows Vista.
