This isn't a new problem.  The shareware version wouldn't recognize my 16550, 
either.  I just figured the commercial version would.  It recognizes my 
friend's 16550 just fine.  I have an internal modem with a 16550, but I can't 
select 38400 bps.  It keeps telling me I need a 16550.  Is there any way I can 
override this and make it run at 38400, anyway?
