Pretty wierd, but thats what seems to be happeing. I wonder if you might have a double com1 problem? Some motherboards have an on-board set of com ports that respond to the com1/2 addresses. If you put in another card to do your serial i/o maybe you have some interrupt and address space collisions. It also might be that the cable for that serial port isn't handling flow control correctly. Regards, Mark Hittinger bugs@win.net
