Which modem do you have? If it is not a fully hardware-based modem, it
may not be recognized by Windows until you run the driver setup program
that comes with the modem. Most modems these days fall into this
category.
I do not know if the Del key is the right key or not. Other possibilities
usually include F1, F2, or F10. Sometimes, I just bang on all the keys at
the same time, with the hope that it will produce a keyboard error, thus
letting me into the BIOS.
