where is my phone dialer?

ok - call me an idiot - running win xp but I cannot locate phone dialer
anywhere - I really don't think it's installed - can it be downloaded from
MSFT or reinstalled from the xp disk? thanks.

I get a messgage that the system cannot locate the modem. This is after I
installed XP Home. I ran msconfig and ran the add devices and services and I
still have the problem. Please help

This sounds suspiciously like you did not install the modem and drivers
in accordance with the installation instruction provided by the modem
manufacturer. Start by reading them first.

Look in Device Manager. Right click My Computer | Manage | System Tools
| Device Manager. Exand the modem section. Is there an entry for one?
Right click on it and select properties. Does it say the device is
working properly?

I noticed you started a later thread on this issue too. You need to
stick with one thread.
