| The light goes on as soon as you plug in the tower? Sounds like someone is already using COM3. I was looking around DELL technical support and you may have a bit of work ahead of you. First off your serial port on the inspiron 8200 should be COM1. I (...) (18 years ago, 9-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
