This article is about why the sound input source on PowerBook G3 Series computers may spontaneously change to Internal Modem.
DISCUSSION If you have FaxSTF or Global Village fax software installed and it is set to answer incoming calls, the fax software will automatically switch the sound input to Internal Modem every time the PowerBook comes out of sleep. This is normal behavior. Also, FaxSTF may attempt to re-send a previously unsuccessful fax in the background. If you don't happen to be in the Finder to see the notification window appear, it may appear that the sound input source is changing spontaneously. In fact, the fax software is just changing the sound input to Internal Modem in preparation for sending a fax. Note: Macintosh PowerBook G3 Series computers should not be confused with Macintosh PowerBook G3 computers. Though the names are similar, there are significant differences.
