evo3gsx,

This is telling you the COM1 (serial) port is bad.

Check your BIOS settings, make sure it is set up properly and retest.

hmm there isnt a serial port on this laptop it has usb/firewire/vga output/ s-video output/ 4 usb / NIC/ 56k could the eroor be refrencing any of those? also the bios doesnt let change com settings but I loaded default settings and ran the test again with the same result.

EDIT: looking at it Im guessing its saying 56k on board modem is bad, second opinion?

evo3gsx,

That very well could be it.  If it is a "winmodem" type it could present itself as a serial port but not respond correctly as such through the BIOS.

For some OEMs we have developed PDEs to test these types of devices through DOS.  There are many different types and unfortunatly there is no generic module to test these from dos.

Try diabling the modem in BIOS and see if the error goes away.  If it does the windows modem tests would be your only option to test this device.

-Fred
