I’m using Phindows [Photon In Windows] version 1.20 on my Windows XP laptop and a while back for no apparent reason the serial function quick working. I can still enter an IP address and open a remote Photon secession but when I try to dial a remote QNX server, I get “cannot open com3”. Since there is no “uninstall program”, I have deleted all of the obvious Phindows files and have manually removed all registry entries and then re-installed it only to get the same results. In fact the last IP address that was entered is still populated. There must be an ini file somewhere that I am not deleting. I do know that there is NOT a problem with com3 because I have another application that uses it without any problem.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you. Mike |

Mario, That is one place I did not delete the ini file. What’s strange is it didn’t come up in my search for Phindow files. But it did not resolve my problem. When I re-installed Phindows, I was prompted for the license (I wasn't before) but I still get “unable to open COM3” when I select serial communications. Thanks for help. Mike |

Mike, if you say, that another application is using com3 without problems, does this application maybe block com3, even if this application is not running anymore?
