- Yes, read the FAQ. You can't have "wholes" in your COM ports. You cannot
- use COM unless you have COM1-COM3 installed.
- If you don't have anything on COM2, just put your modem on COM2.

- I'm running a BBS under OS/2 called Maximus. It's pretty good.
- I love the fact that I can be running a BBS and playing a game and formatting
- a disk and picking my ass all at the same time. OS/2 is great for that.
