Hello,
I had the serial cable connected to the com port that was not working.
I went to  Control Panel
                        System,
                                device manager
                                        Ports[COM&LPT]
                                              Communications Port[COM1]

Only one com. port is listed here but I have another serial port  physically
next to com1.  Where do I go to enable this port or can I?

Anyhow, the connection is working fine now on com1. Problem solved.  Sorry to
write before exploring further.
Bye,
Terry Gathright

The second port needs to be enabled in BIOS and you must have enough free IRQ's to accomodate it. Email me offline if you have questions. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
