Adding com ports??????
Hey Guys.......
First let me say I have little to no experience with XP as of yet.
A friend of mine called and told me her laptop would not sync her palm through her palm desktop software, also, she tried to install a camera, same thing, no go.
Her error is that it cannot open ports. I looked in Device manager.....there are no com ports installed, only lpt printer port. These devices are both USB and I did then go ahead and try to install a com port. It said it couldn't find a driver and remained opened with yellow exclamation point.
How the heck do I get a couple of com ports in XP and how do I make these two things work. Was fairly simple in 98........hmmm, I wonder how her modem is working if it doesn't have a com port assigned to it?
Thanks in advance,
Sharon
