Serial Port busy could be a problem with the speed the accelerator's running. Or, the motherboard's got a flaw in it not letting it run that fast. Whe you remove the G3, is performance from the serial ports normal? Do you get errors trying to use a modem with the G3 installed? And, have you tried switching ports so the printer uses the moedm port and the modem uses the printer port while the G3 is installed?
