Why won't my Zoom 56K USB modem fit into any of the three USB ports anymore on my HP laptop? It has worked well for over 2 years.

I don't know if it is a problem with the modem or with the laptop.

Look for obstructions or bent tabs on the sockets and plug.
Do other USB devices work? Look closely at the plugs to compare them with the modem plug. Are there pieces bent or missing? Contacts corroded? Chewing gum in the slot? Are you trying to install it right-side-up? Your question indicates that you can't get the plug physically into the socket. The answer is that something is blocking it. To figure out where the problem is, get other USB devices and cords and see if they will plug in. If they will, the problem is with the modem plug. If they won't, the problem is with the laptop. Visual comparison is your friend. Tolerances are fairly tight so very minor differences can have a big impact. Go slow, be gentle, never force anything.

    Missing modem

    what is XE3 circa 2002, 15 years young. wow.

    XP is now 3 years dead, at microsoft.
    why not at least upgrade to Win7. be wise to do that.
    XP must have SP3, if not it will fail, and even with it it fail.
    lots of USB devices for example will fail. here.
    dial up, you dont run DSL.
    ive not see dial up in 20 years. why dial up.?

    if compelled to use dial up, you need a modem that XP understands
    most of them it does not. nor will it ever,
    there are 2 classes of modem. (DIAL up to POTS)
    1: software modem (99% software, and a box) they SUX. all do.
    2: hardware modem, best is USB. by
    and A good dial up program,. windows dial up software stinks.

    https://www.cdw.com/shop/products/Hayes-ACCURA-World-Approved-V.92-56K-External-USB-Mini-Modem/1651998.aspx



    i see this is HP supported (was) modem
    Agere systems soft PCI
    it needs the HP.com driver to run that modem
    does the number you dial buy hand (using a POTS phone)
    dial up and answer and squeal? if not its hopeless that number
    you need to pay for superscription service, and with a pass word.
    LIKE HERE
    http://www.earthlink.net/dialup/




    THE PROBLEM IS HP NO LONGER SUPPORTS YOUR PC
    SO THERE ARE NO DRIVERS. now.

    why not get 10 year or newer PC, or get DSL to home
    or cable modem with only 1 channel active, (slow like dialup)
    for cheap. (im using 16channel now, as i type)

    or buy a new modem and connect it and use the new modems
    disk to install a nice dialer for you.
    but finding one is not easy now.

    the best modems, are Hayes, there hardware modems are like rock. i used them back in the ARPnet days and on amocat.
