subject: Supra 28.8 PNP internal

 I've been pulling my hair out over this one...
bought a new internal 28.8 PNP (has paper insert in docs says its
a 33.6) 
 I run OS2 and my drives are all HPFS
 motherboard is an Intel " PLATO " with the
 latest bios update and a P90 cpu with a
 Cirrus logic PCI video card
 I can't find the modem at all...
 all my diagnostics say the mouse is the
 only com port in the system. I even went as far as
 turning off the other comports in the bios and
 pulling all the cards except my video card and modem.
 the legacy install program doesn't seem to 
 work properly it hangs half the time right at the end
 before it sets up the modem... (guess it can't find it)
 I've reinstalled my Supra 14.4 internal and it works fine
 (this one has jumpers hint hint... )
  This Plug and Pray crap is making me crazy...
 I even went as far as taking one of my drives, formatting it 
 as a FAT drive and then disconnecting my other drives and booting
 of the FAT one...
  It still didn't work...
  Is there a problem with the Intel PLATO motherboard and chipset???
  PLEASE PLEASE put jumpers back on the modems so at least we can force
  them to an address.
