I have an Alactel PCI Modem card connected to my Nildram ISP.

It has run fine since installed 6 months ago, but after I reformatted my
system, I cannot seem to get Windows XP to recognise the modem for the
'dial-up' settings for the PPPoA.

Can anyone help, or suggest a setting that I have missed?

TIA

Further to my last, I have tried the latest drivers and searched the FAQs.

the modems CD.

I solved the problem .. well sort of ...

If you are installing the drivers for this to XP then DO NOT use the CD ones
but download them from speedtouch.co.uk.

Then before you install the drivers (different to what the manual for other
O/Ss says) install the card. Point the device at the drivers when P&P finds
it and it will work.

The problem I had was that I had tried to run the CD software and this just
messed up the O/S .. the old drivers are a real pain to un-install.
