I googled, but only found > USB2Serial devices, and I don't believe that would work for me E.g. company Sunsway is making PCI cards with 1 or more (up to 6 I think) RS232 ports (http://www.sunsway.com.hk/) - it uses "ST Labs" name for their products. But I don't know nothing about the quality of these cards or company in general. I just hope, it could help U. ;) Milan
