Though this is the Linux group, I am also stuck with
some NT stuff at work (particular branch of GOV work).
Some stuff, esp. modems, just does not have drivers
in NT, and their is no way around it. If Sony or the
modem manufactures web site does not have it, then it
probably does not exist. Being a laptop, you probably
cannot replace the modem...sounds like they need
another solution. Linux may have something that works
(check "freshmeat.net"). Windows 2000 Professional
does have better driver support...that may work. If
the "powers that be" at work say those are not
options...then they need to replace the laptops or
purchase the services of a programmer that will
program for an obsolete OS (NT) to "make" a driver for
the modem. The last solution will possibly cost more
than it will cost to replace the laptops.
