I didn't disable anything from the BIOS menu... My (relevant) system config: - pentium pro board w/ 2 serial ports - Modem Blaster Flash 56 Value - PCI Ethernet Adapter - Adaptec 2940 SCSI Controller - AWE 32 PnP - Win 95 Part of my autoexec.bat: rem Other system stuff SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E MODE:0 SET SOUND=C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\CTSND SET BLASTER=A220 I10 D1 H7 P300 E620 T6 rem Yaroze stuff call c:\progra~1\psx\djsetup.bat My config.sys is: device=C:\OS\WIN\95\himem.sys device=c:\os\win\95\emm386.exe rem device=c:\os\win\95\emm386.exe m6 devicehigh=c:\os\dos\mtmcdai.sys /d:MSCD0001 devicehigh=c:\os\win\95\command\ansi.sys My djsetup.bat is: @echo off PATH %path%;c:\progra~1\psx\bin;c:\progra~1\gnu\bin set DJGPP=c:/progra~1/psx/djgpp.env set TMP=c:\progra~1\psx\temp set DTLH3000=0x3f8,4,115200 set go32=dpmistack 2000000 The Modem Properties are: Port: COM3 I/O Range: 03E8-03EF IRQ: 5 COM1 Properties: I/O Range: 03F8-03FF IRQ: 4 COM2 Properties: I/O Range: 02F8-02FF IRQ: 3 Mouse Properties: Standard Serial Mouse. Doesn't say what port it's on but it's plugged into my first serial port. Note: I had problems with the Creative IDE controller, so I disabled it---that freed up an IRQ.
