How can I set a usb to com1 or com2 port in Win7 where there is no rs-232 port?

I have a program I want to run in Win7 Home Premium. The program requires that it be connected to Com1 or com2.  My computer has no other except the usb ports serial ports. How can I assign com1 or com2 to one of my usb ports?

Looks like that the USB device that you will be truly recognized by the computer as a COM port. It could come with drivers. If that were the case you want to make sure that the accessory is properly recognized as a USB port.  You can check this by opening the Device Manager and developing group 'Ports '. Ensure that it is not an exclamation mark next to it. If there is, you may need to reinstall the driver.

If there is no exclamation mark then don't double-click the icon for the port to open. Go to th e 'Port Settings' tab and click on "Advanced". You will see a drop down menu that you can modify to change the allocation of port for the USB adapter.

    I am trying to install a Dell 3000cn laser printer in my computer. He started by putting a virtual printer in my control panel that would not print it had nothing on the Hardware tab, under its properties and real hardware was still on the list of unknown devices in the bottom.  I removed both and removed the driver and tried to install the printer before I plugged it in which does the same thing as before so I went into the Device Manager and there was no printer listed.

    Generally, printers do not appear in Device Manager.  You will see, however, registrations for "IEEE 1284.4 devices ' or ' IEEE 1284.4 compatible printer" in particular for HP printers.  It is possible that your Dell printer is really a re-badged HP.

  • How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone must enter the password before running firefox

    My younger sister run my firefox just to this afternoon (she origin use IE), and she saw something that is not visible. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone must enter the password before running firefox?

    Another option is the master password + extension.

    You must first make sure that Firefox uses a master password, for more details on how to do that see use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords. Then with the master password + extension in its options, go to the getting started section and make sure that "ask for password at startup" and "Exit if cancelled" is selected both.

    As with all extensions, this protection is quite weak and can be bypassed if start you Firefox in safe mode that disables extensions.

    Hi Drake,

    Review the devices USB connected to your PC and make sure that there is not a USB 1.x device connected to the same USB HUB (front or rear).  USB 1.x devices will cause the USB HUB at the bottom shift to 1.x speeds.

    You have an old PC (2002), it is possible that your PC does not have a USB HUB 2.0.  In this case, you need to install a USB PCI adapter card.

  • How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?

    How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?  I'm running on Windows 7 64 bit.

    It's strange.  Looks like you have a second paper tray and put it to the default tray.  The second paper tray only supports the types of paper that show on your list.  It's strange because unless you have purchased a second tray paper, plus model has one.  Does only the high-end model.  Other than that, only certain types of media can be duplex, so if you have double-sided printing, it can limit the selection.  I'll watch what else could be the cause and get back to you.

    Its pretty normal for a beginner to take the time to write code. Right-click the map of waveform > Create > property node > historical data, you will get a property node, keep this at the beginning of the code and create a constant. You can also go to the VI properties and > run and select "clear indicators when it is called.

    I recommend you to go through the basic materials of LabVIEW which will give you an understanding on the basics of bases/components of LabVIEW.

    First of all, this is not the arena for that. Do some research on Google and Bing.

    Then, if someone has to pay a fee, it should be their choice, whether they pay or not. It'snot automatic. You will need to research the acceptance of credit card, merchant gateways, set bit. And it won't be cheap.
