Hi,

I remember on a Thinkpad 600E I had to run a dos program (which I'd put on
a bootable floppy before zapping my NT partition) to enable the serial and
IR ports.

There is also a Linux program for it, which you might try 

http://panopticon.csustan.edu/tpctl/tpctlhome.htm

The linux program doesn't do everything the dos one does (or didn't a year
ago) but at least means not rebooting.

If you still have a dos/windows partition, the things you need are

PS2.EXE
PS2MAIN.EXE
PS2.MSG

I hope this helps.

Tom
