I've only 7 jumpers to deal with, 3 under COM labled "SEL",
"0" and
"1" and 4 under IRQ.

Mouse is loaded in CMOS, I'd have to run a diagnostic to actually
locate where it is.
Swapping CON 3 for COM 1 is no problem but which would the external
serial port then be? I'm assuming COM 3 would then be assigned the
serial external port?

OK.
