I guess it's internal if it's COM3. When you say "I went into the kernal and activated com3 (sio2)" do you mean ``boot -c'' or edited the config file and rebuilt the kernel? My modem (internal PnP) uses sio2 (COM3) on IRQ 9. If you did ``boot -c'' then delete the entry for sio2 in /boot/boot.conf and see if it will pick it's own IRQ. Failing that, either disable or change the IRQ for sio0.
