Any thoughts on working this issue?

As to "the built-in modem will not load", I suppose you mean the
driver for a "soft modem" that requires software.

As to activation, I'm wondering how much you actually lose by not
having W10 activated (other than that reminder).

So far I don't see much other than no beg to activate.
I'm thinking on installing My 40 gig HD and run linux. The new builds
look like they work more better now.

If you don't activate it, you don't get update, etc. You could just update w7
to W10, if it can't it'll put back every back to W7.
Modem? You use it for faxing or modem? All my desk top, laptops updated to
W10 without a hitch. I manually updated to have triboot(Linux, W7, W10) I
need W7 and IE to flash blade for remote starter kit. If you call MS, no warm
body answers, just follow thru accordig to the prerecorded message, you
better have good hearing and good typing speed or you'll spend quite a while
to finish the process.

Already done Tony. I like W7 more better, but I'm getting used to W10.
I like Edge over IE for sure. I use Chrome as well so IE doesn't get
used. I had an issue with email, but cured that by going with T-Bird.
All in all W10 gets the job done Ya Ya!
