forget PCI or ISA - go external - much easier to reset and you can see from the LED's what it's doing.

But if you really must go internal, go for a PCI slot modem. ZOOM & USR are pretty reliable. I also use a Wisecom.

I'd avoid the dual modem/sound card combos - too many conflicts. (Modem blaster - only Creative labs item I don't trust)

If you're looking for internals, here's my picks (all are hardware modems):

1st Choice: Actiontek Call Waiting PCI
2nd Choice: USRobotics 56k Fax ISA
3rd Choice: Diamond Super Express ISA

Cheap, but still good if you can't afford the above:

Creative Labs Modem Blaster ISA

Go with USB. I had so many problems with my internal PCI and such unstayable performance, that I had to feed the freaking thing to my lawnmover. Now I have Diamond Express from Diamond Multimedia and everything works just fine www.diamondmm.com (http://www.diamondmm.com)
