I can't remember how it was installed, as it has been installed for over 3
years. It has always worked fine, until I installed the Lexmark printer.
If I try to go through the lexmark productivity console to set up the fax
through there, it says i am missing the LXDFFAS.EXE. my modem is a BCM V.92
56k modem and appears to be fine in the device manner.
