Sorry, if this has been asked thousand times already. I recently installed an internal modem which is running in COM1. I bought the new logitech serial mouse, and when I try to install it, the program tells me that my computer is not receiving any signal from the mouse. I guess this is because both the modem and the mouse are trying to use the same COM port and it only accepts one of them, the modem. How have other people solved this? With my IO card I received some utilities that are supposed to create drivers for COM3 and COM4, but I'm not sure the mouse would run with them. I tried to make the modem run with them and I couldn't do it. Do I have to give away my mouse and buy a BUS one? Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. It's been very frustrating to fiddle around with the ports without any luck. Thanks in advance. --Josep M. -- Josep Maria Fontana, 3940 Locust Walk (MLCH) Philadelphia, PA 19104
