Summary: 8MHZ XT with comm port problem

On my Tawainese Turbo Clone (with an 8MHZ 8088), when I operate at 
8mhz with either Qmodem or Procomm, I get missing characters when I 
communicate (at 1200 baud).  Otherwise, the comm port functions just fine
at 4.77 MHZ.  I don't know if this problem is unique to me or not.  Perhaps
if some people replied to me via the mailer I can decide whether to have
my motherboard serviced or not.......
