>Description:
If I choose in UserConfig communications device for COM1 (port 0x3F8, irq 4), os hangs while trying to detect type of UART.
Type of second port detected correctly - 16550A (of cource, if first is disabled in UserConfig). UARTs are the same. I tried to
swap ports in BIOS, i.e. real com2 have port 0x3F8, irq 4, and com1 was set up as 0x2F8, irq 3 - system hangs again on the
real com1 (or second for system).
My com1 works! I have Genius mouse 3 attached to it (of cource, I tried to unplug it) and it work perfectly under dos & winnt.

>How-To-Repeat:
Find comp with the TX97-E motherboard and try to install 2.2.7-release (sorry for cheek-like phraze)
Choose serial ports in hardware configuration and go.
>Fix:
Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix it.
