Moring Ray,

Firstly ..More mis types on my part .. Antone (Hit the "T" instead of the "Y" should read "ANYONE")

I was over at my mates last nite .. we think its a duff cable ...loaded up the "Drivers" for the cable & NO GO!!.....Thought it was my lappy so tried it on his ... loaded up the drivers ..NO GO

PLAN A

I can upload & Run "Blind" the EAS softwear .. but need the Serial to USB adaptor cable to connect it up ... THATS where it all goes to rat****!! it won't have the cable or cable drivers NO WAY!!!!

PLAN B

use an old lappy WITH a serial port...... Thats running XP Pro GOOD NEWS but its so old it aint got Service pack 2 on it ( I need that for .net frameworks) ... tried to load Service pack 2 but the memory is soooo small it won't load up.

PLAN C

Reformat old lappy with disc of XP Pro including service pack 2 got as far as "Please Enter Key" ..... I can't find it (It was an old "Work" lappy so they probs have it!!!

PLAN D

SCREW THE LOT!! ... go sit in the garden with a few beers !!!!!






NOTE THE MEMBERS


PLAN D ...... WAS VERY SUCESSFUL!!!!!!

Maybe ya desktop PC has serial port, most until recently still had em. ya could set it up near car and give it a go that way negating the need for "wing wong" thingie, Or impress the lil lady and take the Rangie to the PC.:D:D
 
BoB, he probably lives in city, what would fire and enviro authority say:D


I live MILES from the "City" ..... I'm at the "seaside" .. the beach is 150 feet from me front door.......

A defender is WAAAYYY outta my price range ... an old "series" .. Oh YEAH!! I could go fer one of them, especially if its well Knackered ...Got a Big garage I can "Renovate" it in!!!!!!

My Desktop PC is 3 weeks old!!!.... (see my other thread Oh Crap its a disaster)..... when I heard the job was "Going" I made sure the company "Invested" in a new PC for me.. (I work from home)

So that "Object" runs Win 7 as well ...
