First off, if that modem is PnP (even if your bios isn't) you really want to
use the isapnp tool.  


Second, do you really have 4 serial devices on that computer?  If not then
it looks like something is slightly wrong with the 0setserial file and you
may want to edit it.  I don't think that's your "real" problem at the moment
just keep this in mind.
