Works great!

On the SIO "device" line in your CONFIG.SYS you have to use a minimally
documented setting for your fourth parameter, the "-". 

 An example:

device=C:\SIO\SIO.SYS (COM2,2f8,3,-)

or if you lock your port, something like this...

device=C:\SIO\SIO.SYS (COM2:57600,2f8,3,-)

Hope that solves your problem.
