Default modem stops boot

Pci dial-up modem blocks the PC when inserted
below is the pci pinout and the card uses B/A 1-62
http://www.geocities.com/anglomont/pcipins.txt
do you think the cause is a short circuit on some of the power / other
pins?

Try sticking it in another slot; problem might just be in motherboard

A bad or shorted modem can block the PC. Return it to the seller or
discard it.

This is mostly caused by a defective modem. You can try it in another slot
to see if it is the mother board. Most likely you will have to replace the
modem.

Test for shorts on the supply rails with a DMM. I've seen many shorts
caused by tantalum filter caps.

Otherwise it may be that one of the chips is hanging up the PCI bus.
This could be the result of a lightning strike.
