Thanx Vicki - I will try your suggestion although I suspect the problem 
goes a little deeper.  I have found that Portinfo V1.0 indicates that the 
internal card is assigned to Comm 4 OK but gives its address as 2E8 which 
is the address normally allocated by DOS to Comm 3.  This, it appears 
creates an IRQ conflict with Comm 1 which is allocated to my mouse driver.  
Nothing I have tried seems to resolve this problem.  Assigning the address 
3E8 to Comm 4 with Dos_Com V1.0 seems to work OK but then Portinfo still 
"sees" Comm 4 at address 2E8 and again reports an inability to generate 
interrupts. Is it likely that this is causing, or perhaps compounding
the problem? - regards Chi
