After upgrading bios on my SONY VAIO PCG-R505DCK
(original bios from SONY site)
I didn't see internal modem
(Conexant-Ambit® SoftK56 Data/Fax Modem)
before upgrading bios I used modem few month ago
so I'm not sure its happend because of upgrading or not
I try low level utility http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/modemident.php
under windows and also under Linux by ls pci
but didn't any string related to modem

Is it possible? or my modem dead? :cry:

Hmm, maybe bios allocates interrupts differently? Which operating system are you running? Did you try deleting the modem and letting the operating system find it again?
