Lloyd..
i have winfax 8.nn on my 701 and 760ED and desktop, but i have not tried
it on either of my 770's..
you can turn off the automatic loading of winfax controller by removing
it from the statup menu..
that should stop the error messages at least..
then i would check the irq's in win95 device manager..
