All,
I own, according to the Comtrol Techs, the only DELL computer in which the
RocketPort USB Serial Port box does not work. Everything installs nicely,
it works fb with writelog, etc until I turn the computer off at night and
then come back the next day. Windows 98 will not load - it dies with a
severe error at a DOS screen which tells you to restart your computer.
There was no way of getting past that error except unpluging the USB cable.
The Rocketport is now running (very nicely btw) on my OSCAR computer and at
the moment I am using a Belkin USB single port which runs fine. I was just
about to get one of the SIIG PCI serial boards, ha
