- Looks like a classic case of IRC conflicts. Probably your mouse is on
- com1 and your modem on com3. Since these two comports share the same
- IRQ, you can't use both the modem and mouse at the same time...
-
- Solution: Configure your modem to com4, and all your problems should be
- gone. Of course you will have to reconfigure your commpackage to use
- com4 for your modem.
