Since we're on this topic, I'd like to ask a question. I was going to send
Rich the same info, and when I went into Control Panel and got to the
Advanced Section, I got a pop up window that said I needed to have Write
priveleges in the Registry to make changes, and it wouldn't let me in. I
tried it on my laptop and there was no problem. Does anybody know what I
might need to do to allow "write" privileges to make changes to my COM Ports
if need be?
You can e-mail me at w0raa@w0raa.com if you want to keep it "off reflector".
