COMM Ports not Available When Using OS/2 for Windows with XR06300
and Windows for Workgroups 3.11
-----------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOM:
    When running OS/2 For Windows with Windows For Workgroups
    3.11, WIN311.ZIP should be used. After applying WIN311.ZIP,
    WIN-OS/2 should work except for the communications driver
    where the error message Comm ports not available
    occurs.  The COMM.DRV driver in Windows For Workgroups
    3.11 is different than the COMM.DRV driver in standard
    Windows 3.10.  WIN311.ZIP did not address the driver.

RESOLUTION:
    Use the COMM.DRV file from standard Windows 3.10,  not
    the COMM.DRV included with Windows For Workgroups 3.11.

PROCEDURE:
     Replace COMM.DRV in Windows For Workgroups \WINDOWS\SYSTEM,
     directory with the COMM.DRV file from standard Windows 3.10.
