Hello,
I've got 2 similiar problems with my Logilink usb-to-serial adapter (model UA0042):
- first one - under XP/SP2, conditions:
1) I've installed adapter driver
2) I've installed ThoughtStream Interface
3) Xp recognizes my adapter as COM4 (i.e)
4) I've configured COM4 port - lowered transmission bufer to the lowest possible value
5) I launch ThoughStream Interface then choose right COM port no 4
6) lunch session and after 20s nothing happens and I receive message like this ("no data from Com port")
7) MentalGames runs the same without any effect
- second one - under Win7, conditions:
1) I've got installed proper driver for Win7
2) when I connect adapter into free usb port, windows isn't able to install device
PLEASE HELP, I'VE SPENT 4 HOURS TO SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS :(
Regards

Hi Adam;
I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you're having with your USB to RS-232 adapter.
I would say that your adapter is defective in some way. I assume you went to the manufacturer's site and downloaded the latest driver?
I would just return that adapter and get a different one from a different manufacturer.

Re: USB -> Serial adaptor issue
Hi Andy,
I think you're right. I haven't managed to work this adapter proper, so I'll return it to retail and will buy another one from a different vendor.
Thanks for Your support.
