But just precisely what does the Win95 IrDA driver do? I picked it up and installed it on my ThinkPad 755CX, which has built-in IrDA compliant IR on COM1. One of the first things the installation asks is what IR to use, and it chooses to use COM1 for the IR. After that, it sets up a COM4 for me to use for IR. What was the point? I already had a COM1 which did IR! I was hoping for a driver that would actually use the IR by itself, and not force me to configure COM1 to be the IR, so that I could use both the serial port and the IR. I'm tired of having to switch between serial and IR and reboot. -- Chris Osborn, Network Administrator Voice: 707 253 3130 Napa Valley College Fax: 707 253 3063 2277 Napa-Vallejo Hwy., Napa, CA, 94558 <fozztexx@nvc.cc.ca.us> MIME ok, NeXTMail tolerated
