I'm not able to hear my modem dial. I installed the Modem sound extension from my System restore CD hoping it would work does anyone have any suggestions? The rest of the mac makes noises

My problem is just the opposite: connecting to the Internet resets my Sounds Input preference to "Internal Modem" with "Play sound through output device" resulting in a loud buzzing sound through my iMac DV's speakers while connected (unless I manually change the Sounds Input setting back to Internal Mic, of course). Setting the Modem sound to Off seems to have no effect.

Wlonh, I looked there I have a about 10 years mac Experience, No offense taken. I can try and delete the Sound prefs and see if that works. I am also not getting the keychain sound people are talking about either maybe I'll see if the sound pref takes care fo this. Thanks
