tried reinstalling the lw beta version, still no luck.. but before i did that, i didn't delete the lw pro.. if a window asked me there's an old version, i just clicked 'ignore'.. wonder if i did the right thing, or should i delete all lw files before reinstalling?..

the modem from the other computer (in another room) is Motorola SM56 speakerphone modem..

what do you think?..
