Hi all,

I use the mf.sys and two inf files I found in the newsgroup to install the
serial driver for my serial card that is connected on
a PCI to ISA brigde. The in the device manager under XP pro I can see that
the driver is loaded correctly( no resource conflict etc.). When I load my
application it finds the new installed serial port and then tries to write
to the serial port. It seems that the write is in an endless loop, because
it never finishes. When I open the Explorer and start moving through the
folders suddenly my application finishes writing.

Any ideas?

Are their some test tools under XP to test the serial interface?

Many thanks.

Mike Engel
