You say you've reinstalled your OS twice, as in format and reinstall and it still doesnt work? Also 2 different modems and a new motherboard.

Thats odd, because a 720 shows a problem with your local machine 90% of the time its an OS issue, After all you've done it should be working.

Has it ever worked? If so, whats changed since it last worked, new software on your computer? Have you tried disabling your Antivirus and Firewall.

I have the same problem with my dialup. I'm also using Windows XP. I've tried unistalling and reinstalling my modem driver. I've tried updating my driver, but still get the same 720 error. I have the Lucent win modem. I read somewhere that reinstalling Windows XP and SP2 seperate may solve the problem, but I'm hoping that would be my last option.

Any ideas?
