I just bought a Dell Dimension 5150 tower for my daughter and I went to connect it to a dial up connection and the computer has no modem. A.)Can I download a modem driver, and from where? B.)Can I download it on my current computer and transfer it somehow to my daughters being that hers can't go online? How can I add a modem to a Dell Dimension 5150?Most computers do not come with Modems any more. The come with Network cards (for cable or DSL connections).
You would need to purchase a PCI 56k modem and install it to have a dial-up connection.

Dimension 5150 has two empty PCI slots, use one for a U.S. Robotics USR5670 56Kbps PCI Bus (Plug %26amp; Play) Fax modem - Retail

Open the case, plug it in the PCI Slot and restart, install the software for your operating system.
Too expensive, there are cheaper PCI Bus (Plug %26amp; Play) Fax modems.
