I am using a "generic" Keyspan 4 port USB to COM box and have had no problems with it. I just loaded the software, plugged it into the USB port, and rebooted. When the reboot was done I now had COM1 through COM6. They make an 8 port model too. Any good computer supply dealer should have them or an equivalent.
That way I skip the card hassle and get all the cables away from the dark recesses behind my CPU. Also works great on my laptop. Ron
