Hi,

yes, please install Windows XP on your computer to test in Windows XP if 
it is possible. You do not have to erase Linux in order to do so, you 
could install Windows XP on a separate partition.

Since we share code with Conexant, if the caller ID feature isn't 
working in Windows XP, then it might explains why it isn't working in Linux.
