WS-2308 issues using Cumulus with New PC with all USB ports
Posted: Sun 10 Jun 2012 3:38 pm
I bought a new computer late last year and since that time I have not been able to use it with my Lacrosse station with Cumulus... My new machine does not have any serial or parrelle ports, it is all USB. So in order to get the station connected I bought a serial card, it didn't work, so I bought an adaptor from Serial to USB, that isn't working either. I am getting a com port in use error no matter which port I choose. I had this problem before, see http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=3577.0 with my old machine, but I managed to figure it out. I retraced all the steps from those posts with the new machine and updated Cumulus software but to no avail. Is there anyway to get this to work? I would really like to start getting data downloaded again..
Thanks.
Thanks.
