    might dent the front of my skull for being that stupid. ;)
    OK, I responded to your thread in the Micronet echo. :)

    Thank you!

    Believe I have the problems half figured out. Setup a 4.52 VM in VirtualBox last night. Downloaded SIO2K & installed it & configured it. Going to HARDWARE MANAGER...everything was there when I added nPorts=4 to the end of VMODEM.SYS in my CONFIG.SYS. This afternoon...will install some piece of DOS or OS/2 BBS software on it & expect to see it p/u every modem. From there...back to
    ArcaOS to recreate it.

    Thank you again!

    Sounds like a good plan. Good luck!
