You know, that's interesting, because I haven't been able to get the
serial ports on my ASUS P55TP4N to do *anything* useful.  And, this is
under Windows NT and Windows 95.  I just haven't spent too much time
worrying about it.  For a while I had my Hayes ESP card installed in
that machine, and it worked fine.  But, taking it back out and
attempting to use the built-in ports again results in the same
non-functional serial ports.  It's possible they used a weird chip
that just doesn't work right?
