My USR does not work with Win9$ (I do have the address and irq settings for the Rockwell) and under ports in WingNuTs all the address and irq windows say is "default". From bootup I think my COM2/cua1 is of address 2E8h and from my USR the irq is 3. And yet when I use setserial it says the port is busy and it's set on auto mode. > Isapnptools is what you are looking for if both are PnP modems. > This will detect PnP modems. Hope this helps. > Jus musin as usual ..... Already ran that. If anything it should have picked up at least the Rockwell PnP on com1/cua0. (Though it is picking up something). It shouldn't be this backbreakingly difficult, right? Or does Acer suck?
