Have you tried loading both laptop and desktop from puma's
installation disk. This is how I did it. Then you must get your ir port on
the laptop right. I use com2 2F8 int 3. If you have pcmcia cards
installed, remove them till you have it working.
Then on the desktop end make sure that your ir receiver is
externally powered. I found with the Adaptec ir port, that external power
is needed to go at top speed. Without external power the unit would cause
program lock-up during transferring of files. Also try running your port
speeds at slower baud rates till you get everything up and running.
