I have a 386 machine, a Microsoft mouse connected to COM1, and an internal modem installed onto COM4. I tried to use my modem with Windows' "Terminal" program in 386 enhanced mode, but Windows would not let me assign COM4 as the modem connection for the "Terminal" program and it said that "COM4 is already assigned to DOS." and asked me to use another COM port. After that moment, my mouse stopped responding to any movements and clicks. Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance! Kung-Yang Chang Internet: kc354645@longs.lance.colostate.edu
