Windows 2000 PCI HCF Modem Driver Modifier	 Version 2.0  
============================================================

28-12-1999.


This HCF PCI modem driver install was created because there are no HCF PCI modem drivers for Europe, Australia, New Zealand or South Africa - as at 20-12-1999 - for Windows 2000 build 2195.

The existing Windows 2000 HCF PCI modem driver only allows the 
selection of the following countries - Taiwan, Mexico, Japan, Canada, and the USA.

This Win2000 PCI HCF Modem Driver modifier installs a country selector in the Control Panel, with additional nations.

Countries added are Australia, Austria, UK, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherlands, Ireland, Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Spain, Portugal, New Zealand, South Africa, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Malta.

The installer also installs modified mdmgl004.inf and mdmrpci.inf files into ...

C:\winnt\inf    (DON'T ALTER THIS, unless the winnt isn't the system directory)

The modified mdmrpci.inf file contains additional setup information, for extra countries.
The modified mdmgl004.inf file contains additional nations to display in the country list.



Installation Instructions.
==========================

Quick
=====

1. Remove the existing HCF modem driver.
2. Modify the driver (with this installer).
3. Let Windows redetect the modem (using new files).
4. Select country from Control Panel.

Detailed
========

Once the HCF modem is installed in the computer, and Windows 2000 started, it should detect the HCF modem and install drivers for it.

After it has completed, go to the Control Panel and double click the 
"Phone and Modem Options" icon.

Click the Modems tab.
Click on "HCF 56K PCI" to highlight it.
Then click the "Remove" button.

Now go to the Explorer...
Double click HCF_PCI_mdm2k_drv.exe to install the modifed driver files.

Then, let Windows 2000 redetect the HCF modem again...

Go to the Control Panel and double click the 
"Phone and Modem Options" icon.

Click the Modems tab.
Then click the "Add" button.
Windows 2000 will then detect the modem again and will install the driver from the modified mdmrpci.inf & mdmgl004.inf files.

FORGET about a "digital signature" for this modified driver.
Why ? Because Microsoft forgot about you.

Finally, go to the Control Panel and double click the "HCF Modem Country Select" icon. Select your country from the box that appears.

That's it.
