I've got a simular problem. I recently upgraded to Win98 and have been
unable to get
my modem to work with COM3 (which is where it was for the last 4 years with 3.11
and DOS) because I can't find out how to change the IRQ that gets used for
the modem.
I initially had the modem on COM3, IRQ5. The reason for this is because I've
always
had an I/O card that had 2 serial built in. The card I'd like to use is a
vesa card with:
COM1, COM2, GAME, HARD, and FLOPPY connectors with 2*UMC 82C863
chips (which I assume are the serial chips) and a PROCHIP PR4030B closer to the
hard drive connector. (FCC ID: H9NDI-602) (brand and manual unknown as it was
bought used)
The real question I have is how do I change the IRQ settings in WIN98 so
that I can
put my modem back on COM3?
tia....
