Hi experts,
I have a digital camera that needs a 9-pin serial port connection
to the computer. My desktop has its mouse connected to the only
9-pin serial port it owns. I tried connecting to the 24-pin
serial port via an adaptor, but that did not work -- the system
did not seem to recognize its existence.
My question; can one add another 9-pin serial port via an
expansion card? And if so, how do you assign a COM port to it?
(I use COM1 for the mouse and COM4 for my modem.)
Second question; is there any way to change over to a PS style
mouse to free the 9-pin serial port for use by the camera?
Thanks for your help!
