Serial comms

Hi,

I've been trying for some time to establish reliable serial comms for
a 4-port system, i.e. with the two regular COM1 and COM2 on the
motherboard and with a dual PCI serial card (COM3 and COM4). The
serial class I have works fine with COMs 1 and 2, but I can only read
from COMs 3 and 4, not write. Other applications seem to work fine
with all the ports, so it's not a hardware issue. Is there something
special I need to do when dealing with COMs on a PCI card? (I am using
Win2000 on a Celeron 1.2GHz)

Many thanks,
Karl
