How do you tell com.sys and vcom.sys that there is a com3 on irq7 at
address 3e8?

Add the following to the COM driver lines in your CONFIG.SYS.  IRQ 7 
might cause problems because OS/2 uses IRQ 7 for the LPT1 port (be sure
not to use COM3 when printing, or vice-versa):

DEVICE=C:\OS2\COM.SYS (3,3E8,7)
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS (3,3E8,7)
