Hi,
this Windows XP serial port problem is the biggest headache when you
run a program which is not directly written into XP environments.......
I have an old compi running under WIN 98SE and never got any
problem.........
just think... when was the Tbolt software developed......... many years
before XP was born......

Where windoz incorrectly detects a serial device that is connected to
your computer on boot.

If mine was attached to the system at boot, Windows XP thought it was
some
kind of serial mouse -even when I was going through USB/RS-232
adapter.
Try disconnecting, reboot, then hook it back up and run the software.
To "fix" Windows so that didn't happen again, I booted with it
attached,
disconnected so it didn't make my mouse cursor jump around, and then
went
into device manager and disabled the
new device which showed up as
some > type
of mouse.

problem
is since I have used it to program some Motorola radios that have a
reputation for being picky about their serial connections. I will
try a
standard serial port but are there other things I should look at? I
did
look
at the manual but didn't see anything that might help. This is my
first
experience with Tbolts. I already have a Z3801 and recall having
some
problems getting it to talk. Any help appreciated.
