	Problem: trying to get com 3 and 4 working.
	I have just added a new I/O card with 2 serial ports for com 3 and 4.
	The hardware doesn't seem to automatically accept the two new ports,
	and from the instruction following the new card, it mentioned that 
	I have to evoke the two new ports (com 3 and 4) by softwares (but it
	didn't say which).

	Can anyone suggest where I can find the util to use the two new ports,
	or any other alternatives.

	I believed that I have set the jumpers correctly for the IRQs and the
	ports, and the card does work.

	Please reply by e-mail.  Many thanks in advance.
