Ben, Are you absolutely sure the port isn't actually being used by some other program? For example, if activesync is on your system, make sure that the program isn't checking your serial port for a connection. You can find this in the connection settings of activesync and it's the first checkbox and should be unchecked.
Also, it's not a bad idea to completely reboot the pc just to make sure the port is somehow not being used by another program. Even when you shut down that other program, the port isn't always freed up. Also, you might want to try a regular reset of the bn when you reboot the pc. If the port is somehow in use, the jfw drivers won't load correctly. Don On Tue, 30 Nov 2004 19:48:15 -0600, Ben Blagg wrote: I went through the setting up process with JFW.

I turned on the BN set it to terminal mode then booted the computer. all I get on the BN is a blank screen.I'm sure there is just one piece missing, but what is it? Thank all of you in advance.
