Someone else suggested that. The other problem is that I am already
sharing about 4 or 5 IRQs already under Windows98 (I have a very heavily
loaded down system). I have NO free IRQs...
The guy suggested that I use the IRQ that the modem will free up and just
use one of the ports and disable the other...
Think I'll try that. I didn't realize they were only $20. That's cool...
Thanks.
