    As per the link I gave above you can change your Comm port settings for your USB in device manager. Presuming you loaded the Vista driver for the adapter.

    The Device Manager can also be accessed from My Computer the same way it was in XP.

    Right click My Computer, and select Manage. Then, from the Computer Management window, select Device Manager.

    And you are using a null modem cable AND USB adapter combination? Have you set your USB comm port anywhere between 1 and 4?

    A TX is a Eurovox TX and you are in a Eurovox TX thread, so hence my query. Catch up tomorrow at some stage.

    Well done :) When you say it wasnt connecting do you mean the null modem cable was loose or the serial connector?

    sorry got caught up in the excitement of fixing it. I was trying to re load software cause it couldnt find any channels and thought this would help i still cant get it to load software but it has found channels on autoscan so all is good.
