frustrations with thinkpad 701

[Joe Hummel <jhummel@cy4.ICS.UCI.EDU>]

Hi all, perhaps someone can offer some assistance.  I just installed
win95 (onto a clean hard disk) on a tp 701, and have the following
questions:

  1.) floopy doesn't work when multiport II is plugged in; works fine
      when standalone.  I've tried various interrupt settings and 
      so forth.  Any ideas?

  2.) when I try to use the modem (when running hyperterminal), I select
      the internal 701 modem, but then when I say dial it asks me to 
      "insert the modem".  ????

  3.) Am I correct in assuming that the serial port and modem port
      cannot both share interupt 4?  Or can they, as lone as one
      is serial_1 and the other is serial_3 -- and I don't try to use
      them at the same time?

  4.) Is the floppy hot-swappable/hot-pluggable?

Thanks!  I love the machine, but this sure is frustrating...
