I recently switched from a 386 clone to a Gateway 486/33. I use a Supra 9600 external modem with Pro-YAM software, in particular, the graphics version. I've got the latest upgrade as of a few weeks ago. With the Gateway, during a fast-and-furious download using Zmodem or CIS-B protocols, I've been getting a "Serial Input Error / Line Status Register LSR 02" error. Might there be something wrong with my Gateway's modem port, my cable, or what?

"Serial Input Error / Line Status Register LSR 02" error indicates something is hogging interrupts, such as a poorly written BIOS hard disk driver. Possible solutions are discussed in the manual "Error Messages" chapter under "Serial Input Error".
