Installing a modem on 365XD



	I had a lot of trouble installing my new modem on my TP365XD. Actually it 
is the second time I am trying. I first tried with a Practical Peripherals 
56K PCMCIA card, and now with a Hayes Accura 56K one. On the first I 
couldn't get it to install at all. With the Hayes it does install, but I 
have a couple of problems I hope that the group can me with.

	1) In order to install the modem I had to disable the serial port on COM2. 
The modem now uses that port. This is strange since my old modem (a 
Cardinal 28800 PCMCIA) used COM3. If I need that serial port back what do I 
do? Is it possible to switch the modem to COM3 like the other one?

	2) In the Device Manager of Windows95 I have *2* entries for the modem. 
This may have to do with the fact that I had to abort the initial detection 
of the modem as it wanted to install the "Standard PCMCIA Modem" rather 
than the Hayes. What do I do about this; keep both or try to get rid of 
one?
