I have recently noticed that one of my USB-to-serial converters is misbehaving. It's a no-name unit that uses a Prolific chipset and has served well for years. It is the one I use for PTT control of

I'm not sure of its age -- I'll guess 3 or 4 years. I don't think its a voltage change on the USB port. Regardless of the port it's in I experience this new "feature." If I remove it from the USB por

I've installed a new UTS and I still have the same issue. I also obtained a serial port slot plate adapter for the on-board COM port on the motherboard and tried that. I still have the same issue wit

Maybe there's a parameter in windoze setup that allows it to poll ports like there is one for polling drive to see if the replacable disk has changed. That makes it see a new floppy or CD even though

Hi Jerry, I'll look for that, though I've never run across anything like that before. I have no FDD in this machine and so disabled the FDD in the BIOS. Maybe it's something I did in the BIOS, though

There is a known bug in XP/SP3 and it's support of USB devices. One system I have has it, and there is no way I can get rid of, even after trying everything I could find on the net. It manifests itse

Thanks Geoff and Walt, This *may* have occurred at the last update, or it could have been two updates ago. I had a period of inactivity that had some updates. The system is relatively recent: AMD Ath

IF you're primarily using it for rig control, have you considered a different operating system? A properly configured lightweight Linux distro should run just fine on that machine. (The system I'm co

Or, you could drift back and find a PC that was in that timeslot where they had TRUE RS-232 on the mobo, and were still fast enough to run XP with no problems! True, it might be a gamer's worst night

Yes, I could change to linux, but most of the apps that I like to use (DXBase, for example) run only under Windoze. I'm not shy of linux (used at work all the time) but that solution isn't practical

the simplest solution if you have a spare slot is to install a serial port card. i have one of the latest mobo's from ASUS with Intel duo 2 CPU and 3 serial ports. one on the motherboard, 2 on a PCI
