I believe it's been mentioned in here before to do an ATZ after a new flash 
just in case the registers get set wrong. I personaly haven't had any of them 
change but just to be safe, I expanded the USR.CFG file to be used when 
flashing. Here is the one I use to flash the x2/v90 code;

AT
AT&F1
ATS7=55
ATS11=50
ATS10=14
ATS58=0
ATS59=0
ATS60=0
ATS61=0
ATS69=0
ATS70=0
AT#CID=0
AT&U0
AT&N0
ATT
AT&W

The first 4 and next to last items were added by me.
I flash the modem, with phoneline disconnected, locked at 57600, to 
Com1/IRQ4. After it is reported that the flash is OK, I load my Term program 
and check each parameter to see if it is right using ATI4, 5, 6, 7, etc.
