Modem problems: IBM PS1

I recently removed an internal modem which was using Com 1. I added an
external modem which had been configured to use Com 2. It is attached to
serial port B on the computer. Since I made this change, my sound card
isn't working and the modem won't initate so I assume that there is an IRQ
conflict.

I would like to assign the external modem to Com 1 since I took the internal
one out.
Would this be a problem? Would I use Serial port A? I didn't do the
original configuration of the external modem, so I do not know what to look
at. What do I change? (just control panel/ports?)

Can anyone help? I cannot find the manual that came with the modem. Thanks
