Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

/push Any news on this? I'm still gettin overrun errors on Serial port 1. The software I use clinks into interrupt sector on serial port 2 and recieves data direct form UART, following that it's decoupled of the rest of the programm (asynchronouse mode).

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Hello, I asked the Developer who told that the software was written in the time of 80286 and 80386, Pentium was not in sight. I've heard of ykhwong's build which is nearly up-to-Date and includes hal9000's patches. I may give that one a try because I don't know what's next... I appreciate your help,

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Hi, yeah it's propably the problem because it's the first time I used this setting. Before I used AUTO but on the main screen (programm which communicates via com ports to hardware) the screen build-up was very slow. In addition there is an optional optimation programm (which doesnt make use of the …

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Actually I am ony my way to test it but I got stuck at building following this guide: http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/Building_DOSBox_with_Visual_C_2008_Express I did everything the way described. I excluded driver.cpp and driver.h and ne2000 because there were some errors while compiling and I don't …

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Hi jorpho, I don't need to use the serial adapter which belongs to the driver. I think that loading the driver wouldn't solve the problem because the Int14 call ist used but I may give it a try. However, still looking for someone who could change static Bitu INT14_Handler(void) { if (reg_ah > 0x3 || …

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Okay, i hope I understood this right. I found that piece of Code in the dosbox source. Now you want me to change my software... but unfortunately the programmer of it was kind of lazy and didnt make Backups after every change... Which means that I only have the executable which is up2date and some …

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Whoops, i attached the edited file. I tried to change # define DOS device names /D:COM5 to # define DOS device names /D:COM3 but that didn't have any effect (the driver isn't loaded in dosbox, i know, but I thought that the software makes use of it, too...however) So, in the original file it was /D: …

Re: Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Hi h-a-l, thanks for quick reply. Yep that's what I was afraid of. I don't know much about these things but I am willed to try my best. I don't know how it's adjusted in the software but I have some information: 1) As I heard the software can't run on Windows XP or newer because direct access on …

Rename Serial Ports (COM4->COM5)

Hello, I am using the DOSBOX MEGABUILD 6 from h-a-l-9000 with porttalk extension and so on. Everything works fine and I am really happy that I can use my old programs on new Windows 7 64bit. On my old DOS-PC I had an adapter to add 4 more COM-Ports (then I had the onboard com1/2 and the external …
