Tonight, I was messing around with the new internal modem installed
in my computer.  While in Kermit, I tried to set its address space
for COM3.  Unfortunately, I believe I gave it the wrong value (3f8
rather than 3e8) due to a slip up.  Now drive a: on my 386 will not
read data in from disk, though drive b: works.

A search of my modem, online Kermit, i/o board and MSDOS5 manuals
turned up nothing on how to reset those addresses to their proper
default values, which is what I would like to do.  I tried a cold
reset, but that didn't work.  A search through the simtel index
gave me no clues as to a program to either detect what was wrong,
or reset the addresses.  This wouldn't be so annoying, except that
I was restoring from a backup of a repartitioning of my hard drive,
and most of my backups are zipped on the 5 1/4" media, which only
a: can read.

Any help is greatly appreciated.  If their is an authoritative
answer, I'll be sure to post it as a summary and get it to archive
sites for future mishaps, like mine.  Thank you.
