	I've been quite a few problems getting windows to work with
my modem.  I've got a 368/25Mhz with 4M Ram.  My COM ports are:
		COM1  empty
		COM2  mouse
		COM3  internal modem practical periperals 2400.

I no problems using procomm under DOS.  When I run windows the terminal
emulater and WNVT???? give me an error message that com3 is being
used by a DOS app.  Then I get a prompt asking if I want to reassign
it to windows.  It eventually gives me a setup where it tries to 
dial into COM1.  This is kindof frustrating.  Now, things get interesting.
Because if I try to use Procomm after this kind of failure, I can
send characters to the modem, but I don't
get any back.  It doesn't echo the number dialing or answer.  Also
if I run windows in real mode, there is no problem.  Any Ideas How to
fix this problem?
				Thanks,  Alex.
