Thanks Steve, I'll take a look.
Seder was very nice.
Lamb potatos, unique spring vegetables, two different kinds of cake.
Leasure service and dinner.
My son is a cheff, and everybody are foodies.
We decided to celebrate the survival of oppressed peoples and finnished with
coffee and Jamisson's.

Happy Passover.
In the 590 software, under tools/setup, be sure com port/USB is
checked, then tab once to see a list of com ports 1 through 20. If you
see any of the numbers followed by "available, try that. If the driver
did install, it may be down in the teen numbers.
you can also go to Windows add/remove programs and in the list of installed
programs, it will say "silicone laboratories", if it actually did install.
If it is there, you can uninstall it, then reinstall and pay particular
attention at the end since it will not only tell you that it installed,
but also say what comm port it is. I remember JAWS read it fine, but
you may have to search the screen if it doesn't speak it for you.
Four cups of wine? All we get is candy.
