Com 4 Modem Card

Hi,
   I have a generic 2400 baud modem card in my PC that I have been happily
using for about a year now, with Telix 3.1, setup as Com4. Unfortunately
however, when I run Telix in Windows 3.1 it crashes, and I have yet to
find a Windows comms program that will recognise the virtual com4 on which
I have set my modem. Apart from the modem, I only have an IDE/IO card and
my ET4000 video card in expansion slots. Does anyone have any idea what the
problem is, and how I can either get Telix to run with a PIF file, or better
still, is there a good shareware or PD comms program available and how do I
get it to recognise my modem.

Cheers,
	Lee.
