I have an IBM PC/AT that I currently need to add two more com ports (com3 and
com4).  The card I purchased is switchable for that range ports 3 and 4, my 
question is, How do I get msdos 3.1 or 3.2 to recognize a com3 or com4
device.  I need them to be available (all 4) from general utilities we
have, not just from programs we can recompile.  Anyway to get a com3   and com4
available to DOS.  I assumed it was possible since the card is for an AT
and it is switchable for these positions.
