I am like Torsten. I have a real modem on com1 and virtual on
coms2-4. Like you, I turned off com 2 in the bios. As for the
addresses for 2 thru 4, I use the standard values. Altho I do know
I can use any irq I want, being virtualized, I find it's best to
use standard and not have to worry about doors working. Some doors
say they accept non-standard com ports but they really don't, and
some say they use fossil only and ignore port settings, but don't.
So rather then figuring out which doors have proper com operations
WRT port addressing & fossil, and which don't, I just set SIO to
report standards and all doors like it. Makes life easier. :)
