I have 4 comm ports in my pc
Com1 IRQ4  3F8H    Mouse  
Com2 IRQ3  2F8H    Modem
Com3 IRQ4  3E8H    
Com4 IRQ3  2E8H

i have the following problem:

if i want to use my modem under win95 windows 95 appears with the following
error
message:   OpenComm error 

if i connect to modem to Com1 or Com3 everything works OK
if i connect the mouse to Com1 or Com3 everything works OK

if i connect the moust to com2 or com4 mouse is not responding
if i connect the modem to com2 or com4 the automatic modem installation at
win95 says that there is no modem connected!

if i install the modem by own at com2 and then i will checkt it (with
diagnose) the Opencomm Error appears.

So i looked for application wich are opened the commport (e.q. Ms Exchange)
but no programm is started.

What should I do?? my modem is a USR Sportster VI 33.4.
