Through swapping out boards I've identified it as relating to my isa modem. After hitting F1, the system still boots and runs fine, including the modem. Should I just not worry about it? Are there jumpers on the modem I can change (a U.S. Robotics modem)? Any help is appreciated. Susan 07-19-1999, 02:48 PM 03F8 is usually COM1. Your modem is conflicting in COM1 with your BIOS. You need to disable COM1 in your BIOS. [This message has been edited by Susan (edited 07-19-99).] smroz 07-19-1999, 08:50 PM Thanks for the tip. I tried two things -- giving the com1 port another address and disabling it entirely. Both eliminated the conflict problem, but then the modem didn't work, at all. When I reset the address to 3F8 I got the conflict message again, but the modem worked again too. Any other suggestions? SysOpt.com
