Ive got a problem with the COM4 port. I haven't even got one! Ive got my mouse on COM1 and my modem on COM2 but when I originally boot up Win95 it tells me Ive got COM1 and COM4. When I go in to system/device manager and look at the port its got the same Interrupt as the COM1 drive. If I got in to the properties/port settings/resources it tells me Ive got a conflict with COM1 and then automatically sets it correctly and hay presto COM4 disappears and COM2 appears like a cheeky schoolkid and everythings OK until I reboot.... Anybody got any ideas or am I doomed to change it manually for the rest of my life...all this worked OK in 3.11 Config.sys DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS /INT15=1000 DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS buffers=40,0 FILES=128 DOS=UMB FCBS=16,8 DEVICEHIGH /L:1,26928 =C:\SB16\DRV\CTSB16.SYS /UNIT=0 /BLASTER=A:220 I:5 D:1 H:5 DEVICEHIGH /L:1,10416 =C:\SB16\DRV\CTMMSYS.SYS DEVICEHIGH /L:1,13904 =C:\SB16\DRV\SBCD.SYS /D:MSCD001 /P:220 DEVICEHIGH /L:1,9072 =C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ANSI.SYS DOS=HIGH DEVICEHIGH /L:1,12048 =C:\WINDOWS\SETVER.EXE DOS=HIGH BREAK=ON shell=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /e:1024 /p device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\display.sys con=(ega,,1) Country=044,850,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\country.sys Autoexec @echo off SET SOUND=C:\SB16 SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6 SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E C:\SB16\DIAGNOSE /S C:\SB16\MIXERSET /P /Q rem - By Windows Setup - LH /L:1,46544 C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD001 /V /M:15 C:\CLUTIL\CLMODE m2 LH /L:1,49776 C:\TOOLKIT\GUARD PROMPT $p$g PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\;C:\DS;C:\DOS;C:\XTG SET ORIGPATH=%PATH% LH /L:1,17904 C:\DOS\FMOUSE REM LH /L:1,13984 SHARE.EXE /F:4094 /L:30 LH /L:1,6384 C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\DOSKEY mode con codepage prepare=((850) C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ega.cpi) mode con codepage select=850 keyb uk,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keyboard.sys ========================================================================= Michael McSkeane mmc@schemed.demon.co.uk
