I have a dell inspiron 1525 and normally connect to the the interent on sky broadband, however I been experience connection problems and am now trying to setup a backup Dial Up connection.

OS: Win Vista home edition
modem: conexant hda d330 mdc v.92 modem
browser: IE8

When i am trying to establish a dial up connection i am getting an error message stating that either the modem is in use or is not configured correctly. I have never used the modem on this laptop before. All the drivers for the modem are uptodate and device manager says the device is working correctly!

If anyone could give me any ideas as to how I can't establish a dial up connection I would be really grateful as its starting to drive me mad!!
