TP 760 - Cannot use the modem after the system has been suspended
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
The Mwave Modem works fine when the system is initially turned on. However, if the system is put into suspend mode and reawakened, the unit will issue a message "Unable to open the com port" when trying to access the modem.
Resolution:
If the problem occurs under Win95, open the Control Panel and select the "Power" icon. Change Power management from "Standard" to "Advanced." Shutdown and power the system back on for the change to take effect.
If the problem occurs in MS-DOS mode, then check that POWER.EXE is loading in the DOS config.sys. POWER.EXE is a DOS power management program and it comes with any version of native DOS.
