Alright, I tried the mode command and it seems to work in that it made the adjustment. When I tried the mode command for com2 or com3, it gave me an illegal device error. The strange thing is that I looked in the windoes device manager and found that there was no com1 listed, but there was a com2. Go figure. I guess that I'll have to wait for some eyes before I can do any more. Thanks for all of the help. -- Rob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Glenn Ervin@Home" <GlennErvin at cableone.net> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 9:54 PM Subject: Re: can't find serial port > You might also try the following in a DOS box or at the DOS prompt: > mode com1 9600,n,8,1,, > That is the typical port settings. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Kyrath.
