Slight Correction: You can use all com ports at the same time,
but you must assign a different IRQ to each port.  Com 1 & 3
default to
sharing IRQ 4 and Com 2 & 4 default to sharing IRQ 3.  You
usually
can re-assign IRQ 5 & 7 (from LPT 1 & 2) to the other com port,
however you must check each PC for free IRQ's.

One last thing..... you can not use the modem and the camera at
the same
time.  Well, to be more accurate, you can't use COMM 2 & 4 at the
same
time and you can't use COMM1 & 3 at the same time.  (But this
probably
isn't your problem.)
