Windows 3.1X
Step 8
After you have modified your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to preset the I/O port
address and have obtained the modem's IRQ Number by running the DOS
PMDMCFG.EXE program, load Windows 3.1X.
Step 9
In Program Manager, double-click Main. In Main, double-click Control
Panel and in Control Panel, double-click Ports. In the Ports dialog box,
select an unused COM port (the preferred setting is COM 4) and click
Settings, then click Advanced.
Step 10 Change the value for the Base I/O Address and the IRQ to the same value
you wrote down in Step 4. If you modified your AUTOEXEC.BAT file in
Step 5, use 7900 as your Base I/O Address. Click OK when done.
Step 11 Windows will prompt you to reboot. Remove the diskette from the floppy
disk drive and then click Yes.
Step 12 After the system reboots, restart Windows 3.1X and configure your
communicatons software to use the same COM port you assigned to the
modem in Step 10. Your modem should now be properly installed and
ready for use.
Step 13 If you did not set the country code command during the DOS installation,
turn to the section titled "Configuring Your Modem's Country Code" for
instructions on how to configure the modem to use the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN) of your country.
