Ok... Did the above and took out the com2 entry in the config.
It configured with IRQ4, which conflicted with the mouse. I
set the BIOS PnP settings to not use IRQ3/4 and it STILL came
up using irq4.

Pulled the board (no config info came with the board or is available
at the co's web site), figured out how to turn off PnP and set for
irq5 on the board and put the com2 entry back in the config. I.e.
I gave up on PnP figuring out the correct irq.

But it works now.

Thanks Much!
