The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.2 for DOS

Some newer modems may be set to odd IRQ settings by default or to avoid other device conflicts. WordPerfect can autodetect modem IRQs below 7, but anything above that it will not find the modem.
The only way around this is to set the modem to a lower IRQ setting.
The modem sould have come with instructions as to change the IRQ assigned to it, if no instructions are available, they will have to contact the hardware manufacturer.
