Support details

Introduction
Why do you need it?
This patch contains the Riptide Audio Driver 4.12.01.2156 and the Modem Driver 2.2.2.164.015 North America Only.
  • On some systems, attempting to use the modem after coming out of suspend mode will cause the system to lock up. Only a reboot will allow you to use the modem.
  • This update addresses issues with Version 4, of the Music Match Software, which causes the computer to lockup when the software ejects the CD or the user pushes the button to activate the CD tray.
  • This patch adds a better V.90 fallback, which addresses connection to ISPs.
  • The patch addresses connection issues with Bay Networks server and Prodigy.
