The last version of QuickBasic for DOS (v4.5) only supports 2 COM ports
(COM1, COM2).
I did have a version of VBDOS, but I have lost it a long time ago, so I
can't tell what it did.
Visual Basic will support at least 16 (I u
Thanks for the info. I will try disabling COM1 and 2 ands see what happens.

There should certainly no problem using COM3 with Win98SE. If you aren't
using your machine's normal serial ports for anything, you might try
disabling them in the CMOS setup screen. That may let the system assign the

I have had a similar feed back from a different W98 user before. It

I believe that the later versions of the DOS BASIC compiler support more
than two COM ports. I'm not sure, but I believe that MS must have released
this old software for free use, as I have seen it posted on many

Well I bought a prologix GPIB device to use with my HP5370A to compare
clocks. I tried a QBasic program and, no surprise, QBasic couldn't find
the COM3.
So, I downloaded "Prologix GPIB Configuration" program and that finds

You never said what your system hardware was, Intel has been making PCs for
several decades now.
With the newer systems there is so much dynamic throttling of components
that issues like this are bound to arise. Replacing the c

I looked at Vista some time ago, and decided that for all the hype, it
didn't give me any more than I really needed with my existing XP.
Now glad I didn't change!

Hi all,
Will someone be able to give me some inputs on using usb-gpib interface from
softmark?
Information regarding coding with the ocx file which comes with the board,
can be helpful.
I thank you for the help, in advance.

Hi Nigel,
The ClockBlock is more suited to the main processor clock as it's only
specified down to a few hundred kilohertz. It would be OK with a
post-scaler though.

One factor to remember about good ol' PCs is that not all of the timing
problem is down to the RTC. A lot of timing errors are down to Interrupts. A
busy PC can lose 100s of milliseconds a day as a result of Interrupt
activity.

You don't even have to remove the crystal, just clip on a wire
with a reasonably strong 32KHz signal and everything will lock
on.

Hi,
Being a hardware kind of guy, my approach would be a little different.
Why not remove the 32.768kHz crystal and feed the existing RTC with
32.768kHz divided down from a decent oscillator?
