The interrupt setting can only be set to interrupt 3 or 4. You should
ensure your modem is using one of these interrupts.If you have an
internal modem that uses COM3 or COM4, such as a Creative Labs
Phone Blaster or a Creative Labs Modem Blaster, it may select
interrupt 10 or 11 as its default setting. If you would prefer not to
change this setting, then you can force the Modem Properties
dialog to recognize this interrupt by editing the Windows INI file
‘SHIVAPPP.INI’. This file is in the Microsoft Internet Explorer
installation directory, which is IEXPLORE by default, and you
should change the [COM3] or the [COM4] section, depending on
which COM port your modem uses so that the interrupt line reads
‘IRQ=10’ or ‘IRQ=11’, again depending on the interrupt your
modem uses.
