I am using my IBM Thinkpad with an older K1EL keyer. The keyer is plugged into the back of the K3 in the keyer socket. The USB connection from the K1EL keyer is hooked to the Thinkpad. The laptop is hooked directly to the K3 via its serial port; yes, a true serial port with a DB9 connector.

Now comes the problem: Setting the com ports correctly.

It has been years since I last hooked this together and I just today installed N1MM onto the recently installed OS. I know I need to set the com ports to get it running correctly. One for the serial connection and one for the USB connection. Reading the installation notes for N1MM just buries me in information when all I really need is a picture of which com ports to use. The last time I did this I just worked my way through all combinations until one magically worked. Currently I don't have that kind of patience :) Could anyone direct me to the short form of the instructions or give me a little hint as to which ports may work? By the way, the OS I am using on the Thinkpad is the last version of XP.
