Hi Clint, 
 
I hate to rain on your parade, but any WinModem will only work 
properly in Windows.  The problem is that a lot of the hardware 
functions needed to run in DOS have been implemented in Windows 
*.DLL type files.  The result is that there is no proper set up for 
DOS and any setups done for DOS will honk up the modem for the next 
run under Windows unless the computer is powered down and restarted. 
 
I don't know how to tell you this, but your best bet is to buy a new 
modem that is of the Win/DOS type. 
 
An acquaintance of mine bought a WinModem and had exactly the same 
problem that you are experiencing.  His solution was to finally 
trash his Winmodem and to install a Win/DOS unit.  Sorry to give you 
such bad news. 
 
I hope that this helps. 
Ed
