Missing wave driver for PCI-RAS V.90 card

Issue:
Windows cannot find a wave file driver for the PCI-RAS V.90 Multimodem card when installed using driver version 1.0.7

Cause:
The modem inf file specifies an incorrect wave device ID.

Solution:

Modify the modem inf file copied by Windows. This file will be in the Windows/Inf directory (or Winnt/inf) and will be named OEMxx.inf.

You can identify the correct OEMxx.inf file by it's contents. The file will state "; 480svs.inf V.90 & K56Flex 115.2kbps External".

Find the following line in the file:

...
[Voice]
...
HKR, WaveDriver, WaveHardwareID ,, "ConexantSVoiceModemWave" ; also linked to serwave inf

and edit it to display the following:

...
[Voice]
...
HKR, WaveDriver, WaveHardwareID ,, "RockwellVoiceModemWave"

Then Uninstall the modem devices and unknown wave devices from Device Manager. Then scan for hardware changes. Windows will then reinstall the modem devices and create the wave devices.
