Did you go to the modems website and upload the driver from there?.It could have a newer version.

Sorry I forgot how to work with that, it has been so long. Call cable modem tech support, they should be available 24/7

Are you sure the modem is compatible with the board on the other pc? That might be a reason. Try another modem on it.

Brilliant question.

Have you tried a manual install?

Plug and Pray in winblows doesn't always work that well.

Wrong board man

Why not take the easiest way out and have it repaired by someone who knows better?
