So, am I correct in assuming that the card does not have to be there for hal
to load the driver for the pins? Everything is in hal show as it should be
except I don't have the card in......I take it we are probably going to have
to write a driver here? I am not a C programmer but I'll try anything
once.......
Thanks Jeff,
Dave
