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.

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
