- I recently ran "msd" from windows3.1. I was suprized to see that my IDE
- 2HD/2FD I/O card on;ly has 8250UART. Then I ran an old version of the
- landmark tester utility. It tells me that I have 16450 UART. So what
- exactly that I/O use? I would really be pissed off if my 486DX-33 uses
- 8250UART.
-
- Oh, "msd" does recognize my internal modem's 16550AF UART, as com3.
-
- Thanks.
