INSTRUCTIONS FOR MANUALLY RENAMING COM PORTS
APPLICATION: ALL LAVA PCI SERIAL CARDS

Question:
	
I am running the final release of Windows 98 and when I run your
ModemSpeed or Redirect utility with your PCI serial card it does not 
recognize the port. What's going on?

Answer:
	
The fix for redirecting the card to lower COM port settings
is the following:

1) Go to Start|Run and type regedit and then click OK.

2) Go to the following place in the registry.

   [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\MF\CHILD0000\PCI&VEN_1407&DEV_0200&BUS_00&DEV_09&FUNC_00]

3) Modify the following string values by double-clicking
   the tab to the left of that String name. Change COM# to a
   value that is not already being used. i.e. COM3
   or COM4. Verify this by checking ports in Device Manager.

   "DeviceDesc"="LavaPort 650 PCI (COM5)"
   "PORTNAME"="COM5"
   "FRIENDLYNAME"="LavaPort 650 PCI (COM5)"

Leave the following strings alone.

   "HardwareID"="PORT650PCI,MF\\CHILD0000"
   "Class"="Ports"
   "Driver"="Ports\\0001"
   "Mfg"="Lava Computer MFG. Inc."
   "ConfigFlags"=hex:00,00,00,00

4) Repeat Step 3 for the other port of the card(if it has one) found in the 
   following place in the Registry.

   [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\MF\CHILD0001\PCI&VEN_1407&DEV_0200&BUS_00&DEV_09&FUNC_00]

NOTE:  Lava's Vendor ID for our PCI cards is 1407 and the Device number for the 
       specific card varies (for example, the LavaPort 650 PCI is 0200). They
       will be the same on every machine. However, the &BUS_00&DEV_09&FUNC_00
       may change depending upon how your system configures our card.
