Beware, just because one inteface works with one application doesnt
mean it will work with all others or on another PC.

Windows does seem to be very fussy with serial ports interface via usb
so the application developers would have you beleive ...


However, my recent experiments have found this is more to do with the
applications that use these devices rather than the drivers or hardware itself.

As you may or may not know, I have just recently updated my S8 ecu
editor software to run under windows as a proper win32 application
and have tried numerous USB/SERIAL devices as part of the main testing.

Had so much trouble getting USB type devices working reliably on different
pcs/windows/hardware combinations. In the end, I purchased a proffesional
communications library plug software pack which solved ALL these problems.

Unfortunately, writers of applications that have "issues" with serial comms
via USB will always blame the interface when infact 99% of the time
its their own software at fault !



Final Rant:
FOOK you Microsoft and Bill Gates for your anti DOS and serial port policy.
