Hello, Charles. CA>> MSD.EXE that is incl with W31 installs should work. JH> Yes, and it also came with DOS 6.x and on the CDROM Disc of JH> Win9x. CA> I knew Wayne had W31 installed, I did not know what version of CA> DOS he is/was using and AFAIK he had no working W9x install as CA> yet. Same here. I remember him mentioning DOS 5 a time or two, and pointed to the Win9x disc since I knew he had that, and thought a newer version of MSD might be missing some of the earlier bugs. Since then, I saw somewhere at USRobotics website that 16450 UARTS aren't properly recognized by software, and report back as 8250's. Maybe versions of MSD coming with later versions of Win9x have fixed this? I dunno, but would like to hear from someone about that. JH> Another way to find out, if running Win9x, go to Control JH> Panel, click on Modems, then Diagnostics. The display lists JH> all COM ports, not just the ones with a Modem. Then you can JH> highlight each COM Port, and click on "More Info", and it JH> shows the UART type associated with each port. CA> (see above) Yeah. Back at that time, I knew he hadn't yet installed Win9x, so I just added that for future reference, or in case someone else out there wanted to find out what their UARTS were, but couldn't find MSD.EXE - - looks to me like Win98 and perhaps earlier didn't bother to put that program on the HDD when installing themselves. - - - JimH. ...
