Default Re: microsoft fax causes PC to reboot

OOPS! No, that didn't help us! It did the same thing again after
reinstalling the modem driver. It called, sent the fax, said it was
completed, and then POOF! The computer turned off and restarted. After the
restart it starts send the fax again.
Our modem is one that came with the computer. It's called ESS Ex56T-P1 Data
Fax Modem. We don't know what we should do differently. Any suggestions?
thanks,
Simon
