Version 7.61.00
Problems Fixed/New Features Added
Change the names of silent Universal Installer/Uninstaller (UIU)
and Universal CoInstaller (UCI) files for modem to avoid conflict
with the corresponding files from Conexant Audio drivers.
Files with the same name and contents may cause WHQL
system failures if both modem and audio drivers are Conexant
based.
New naming convention for silent UIU for modem:
UIU32m.exe for 32-bit OS
UIU64m.exe for 64-bit OS
New naming convention for UCI for modem:
UCI32Mnn.dll for 32-bit OS
UCI64Mnn.dll for 64-bit OS
Note: M stands for modem
nn stands for the last 2 digits of the UCI version.
Fix an intermittent system crash (BSOD) when system goes to
Stand-by mode while the modem connection is active. The
problem is system specific and caused by a race condition
between OS services and modem driver.
Wake On Ring (WOR) is not functional when the system goes
into Stand-by mode while modem connection is active.
This issue was resolved.

INF Changes:
Failure to load INF file under DTM RC2. To attain WHQL logo
for Windows 2000 and Windows XP it is required to use
Windows Vista DTM.
This is a Windows Vista problem introduced in DTM RC2 and
fixed in DTM RTM.

Bug check 0x3b while running devctl.exe on Windows Vista,

Failure to allocate DMA during devctl.exe test which injects fault
conditions when accessing the DMA later. The fix was to:

2) Validate DMA buffer pointer before access.
WDM
All
Bug check 0x9F randomly happening when resume from
standby or Hibernate starting from Windows Vista Beta 2 (build
5384).
When modem goes to D3, a series of events will power down
the codec and enable wake on ring. Sometimes, the bus driver
will already be in lower power state and reject any requests
coming in. This can also cause further failures when system
resumes.
The fix was to change the order of events and check for certain
conditions before making power management calls to avoid

Modem connection is stuck when CW CID arrives and country is

The problem was fixed by:
1) Allowing DTMF CID only for CID type 1

All
All
INF changes:
1) Force BUFFERS=OFF for modems that have no hardware
buffers (ignore INF setting)
2) Default volume setting should be L3 for modems with buzzer
CP
3) Synchronize the settings for KMixer initial delays for 32 and
64-bit systems
4) Add entries for XAudio files to make sure the CoInstaller will
remove them during uninstall.
5) Ignore DaaType setting from INF for modems that supports
just Discrete DAA
6) Add new INF files for all relevant OS/type/etc. combination so
that call progress will route though buzzer when sound driver is
disabled on a system with SmartSP board with buzzer.
7) For HDAUDIO modem, UIPATH in default INFs should use
HDAUDIO instead of PCI
8) Add HDAUDIO prefix to ProductName definition for
HDAUDIO modem in default INFs.
9) Remove obsolete commented out lines referring to csacpl.cpl
10) Failure to load INF file under DTM RC2
This is a Microsoft problem introduced in DTM RC2.

Problems Fixed/New Features Added
Operating
System
Hardware
Platform
System lock up when going to S3 or hibernation with HDA
modem. The modem was changed to work around a system lock
seen on a specific system. The lock was seen while returning
from, or going to, a low power system state. The modem was
found to be in a loop waiting for the bus driver. The change in
the modem is to remove an indefinite wait state in the case
where the bus driver is unavailable. This allows the system to
return or enter the desired state without locking up. This does
not ensure that the modem will work, as the bus driver must be
available for proper modem operation.

WOR was reported as not working on Windows Vista for Teton
HDAudio. The problem was found to be in the configuration. The
modem was changed to accommodate different ring detection
schemes used with the HSF Teton. The new configuration

hardware ring detection method or the software ring detection
method.

conditional checks on the information to ensure that they
are valid prior to access. The blue screen indicates that
the failure was probably caused by HSF_CNXT.sys.
The modem was changed to implement a work around
for an issue seen with SmartHSF4 (Bryce) when
attempting WOR from S4. The symptom was that the
system was no longer responsive after the RING was
detected and the system begins to return from S4. The
problem was found to be rooted in the status of the PLL
used for the clock signal. In the failure mode the PLL
was not configured to run. The work around is to ensure
that the PLL is running in the routine used to return from
the low power state. Since the SmartDAA4 does not
have more than one power mode, it was assumed that
the PLL (clock) would be running while the modem is
active. The change is to remove the assumption and to
verify the clock is running when the modem is directed
to return from the low power state.

HSF
A fix was implemented to correct gain settings in the
codec after connecting at V.90 on certain lines. When
the modem is placed back on hook the gain settings
are reset as to allow proper ring detection. A gain
switch change was also implemented that corrected a
failure to detect caller ID. The In order to detect an
incoming ring signal and then the CID signal to
follow, the codec gains must switch from low to high
gain and then back to low. This functionality has been
fixed in this version of the HSF. This change applies
to discrete DAA products using softring. Specifically
this fix applies to lead-free HSFi for ring detection
and to Teton for ring detection and caller ID.
Windows XP

HSF
A Work around introduced for SiS AC97 modems
going to S3. The modem now checks to see if the
audio device has prepared the bus for power down. If
the bus has not been prepared the modem makes
the proper settings before going to the low power
state. This workaround resolves a failure to wake on
ring in Windows 2000 and in prior versions of the
operating system. Windows Xp does not require this
work around.

HDAUDIO bus devices. This will be resolved and

misleading failure message regarding the HDAudio
installation when installing on an AC-Link platform.
Un-install/re-install without reboot fails. The
installation fails if you uninstall the modem, and
immediately re-install. We are looking at this issue,
and will resolve it for the next release.
OCP does not pop-up on HDAudio platform, ok on
