Hi Steve
What is the difference between a Winkeyer_USB and Winkey2?
As I mentioned in my previous, the FTDI driver seems to have produced Com 5
and 6, but I can't seem to find Winkey2 as the device associated with either
of them despite selecting either in the Winkey setup program.
I must admit to be on the outskirts of my hardware interfacing knowledge on
this one!

David,
Just a shot in the dark (so to speak). Have you gone into device
manager and confirmed your ports are working ok? I know you can also
rename comm ports in device manager to do away with a conflict or to
find a port number a particular device will be happy with.
I'm using a Winkeyer USB, so don't have to worry about comm ports for
this one.
