This article was previously published under Q130771



SYMPTOMS
The Setup program for the Hayes ESP communications accelerator card causes Windows for Workgroups Remote Access Service (RAS) and At Work Fax to not install or work correctly.



CAUSE
The Hayes Setup program replaces the default Windows communications driver (COMM.DRV) with its own driver (ESP2_W31.DRV). In Windows 3.0, the Hayes driver is ESP2_W30.DRV.



RESOLUTION
You must disable the accelerator card to use RAS and At Work Fax. To do so, change the COMM.DRV= line in the [boot] section of the SYSTEM.INI file to: COMM.DRV=COMM.DRV After you make this change, quit and then restart Windows.
