Hi Juan,

Probably I can help with your first problem,

I've got two problems that I expect to solve with you help. First of all,

        Windows2000 by default instals the driver.  Once it install I think
it may be listening at the appropriate port thereby preventing any other
applications trying to listen at that port.  I feel you may have to
uninstall the driver which Win2000 has installed by default or else try it
on any other m/c.  Win9x, WinNT
