No such generic program exists that I know of.. seems highly improbable.

What you can do is look at the actual board and see what chipset it uses (usually written in white letters on the largest IC) and then find and download the appropriate drivers.

In North America at least, most computer parts have an FCC ID Number stamped somewhere on them.

You can go here - http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid/ to determine the manufacturer and model of the modem from the ID number, and with that you can find drivers. Probably.
