I've just installed Win95 and its giving me troubles.  I was just 
wondering if anyone had any experiences with these type of problems.

My system is AMD1335x86 Shuttle HOT433 MB.  16MB ram. AMI AUS25?? bios.

Standard com1 and com2 (IRQ 3 & 4) With mouse on COM1 and just a plug
on com2.

I've tried a number of modem settings (ZOOM VFP V32.bis) including 
standard com3 and com4 as well as my current setting of COM3 with IRQ 5.

I have a STB Powergraph 64v on IRQ 9.

I've tried SBPro on IRQ 7 (I've tried IRQ 10 to not conflict with LPT1
on IRQ 7 but this didn't help).

Well anyway, even with no IRQ conflicts (SBPRO on IRQ 10) the damn thing
runs like a pig.  The mouse skips across the screen and doesn't always
click where I want it to... etc.

If I deinstall the modem and SBPro (as well as com ports and let WIN95
redo them at boot) it runs like a charm.

Any ideas?
