Dell Software Installation Documentation3Com Modem drivers for the U.S. Robotics 
56K Voice PCI (Hawk) Modem.
Version A04 for Windows 9x
Information and Installation Instructions
Note:  This driver is not meant to improve the performance of your Hawk modem.  
Unless you have misplaced your original driver cd, Dell does not recommend 
upgrading your modem to this driver.  Minor changes in the memory of the Hawk 
modems shipped after late August 2000 require this driver to support future 
flash-upgrades of the ROM chip on the modem.  The original A03 release and this 
A04 version will both allow proper use of any Hawk modem.  Dell will only 
support and ship this version of the driver after August 2000.
