subject: Laplink 2.01 problem

Greetings Folks,
     Within the last month I finally took the plunge and rejected the 
herd mentality by switching to OS/2 Warp 3.0.  Unfortunately I am having 
a compatibility problem with LapLink version NU-2.01, it refuses to 
communicate with my serial ports!
     This particular version of LapLink was OEMed for the original NEC 
UltraLite notebook computer in about 1988.  I realize that by today's 
standards this stuff is sort of historical  but I use my UltraLite as 
it fulfills my small requirements for a portable computer.
     The UltraLite has this version of LapLink burned into ROM along 
with MS-DOS 3.3 so I cannot really upgrade the software.  I used the 
installation disk which came with my UltraLite to install LapLink 2.01 
onto my 486.  Then I installed a homemade splitter on COMM-2 so that I 
can connect both a modem and LapLink cable to the same port.  Naturally 
I can only use one device at a time.  All of this works fine under MS-
DOS 6.22 but it just will not work under OS/2 Warp 3.0.  Also, parallel 
connections are not an option me.  Anyone have any ideas?
						Thanks,
						 Greg
