Hmmm...well, hmm, I had problems setting up my Practical Peripherals 14.4
modem, mostly because my computer apparently doesn't have the chip that is
necessary for it to go high speed.  I can comfortably go 19,2 but if I 
try to go higher my computer just can't handle it and I lose characters like
crazy.  From what I understand there's some chip that I need to replace.

As for Procomm for Windows, all you need to do is select the proper drivers
and when you click the setup button, you should see 57,600 as an option.

Hope this helps.
