- I have a no name clone 486 with a no name multi-I/O card that includes
- two serial ports (COM1 and COM2), one parallel port and one game port.
- A mouse is now connected to COM1. How do I know if I can connect a
- high speed modem (>9600bps) to COM2? Does every PC serial card in
- existence support speed higher than 9600bps (e.g. 57600bps)? If not,
- how do I tell if mine supports higher than 9600bps? Thanks in advance.
