- I have a gateway 2000 386 computer with a mouse on port 1 a terminal connected
- to port 2 and an internal v.32bis modem on com3 . under ms-dos I can have all
- three working using intrupts 3,4 & 5. I set asy to setup up com3 as irq 5 but
- I found that I could not access the port in interupt mode only polled mode
- since the polled port is a 19200bps link I dont realy want it polled.
- since it works fine on ms-dos, why can't it work on coherent.???
