Luis, I assume you are using HDBDOS for Coco 1? The baud rate has to be slower for Coco 1. I have to use version 1.1d as that's the only one I find that works, but it works pretty well.

Hi all,

First thing: i have a computer with serial-usb dongle and it works fine
with Coco2 and 3. In 57kbps and 110kbps respectively. And I use DriveWire
4.3.3

But for the coco1 i get a Timed out when reading about 252ms.

I noticed if i change DW advanced setting to: ReadDelay = 1 and
WriteByteDelay = 1 it works. But is pretty laggy now. A directory listing
is stopped at the middle while it waits half second for the next read and
so on.

I couldn't find the problem. It can't be the dongle since it works with
coco2/3. What else coud it be?

When I mean DW i mean HDBDOS DW, doing a DIR, LOADM on virtual disks from
basic.

Thxs,
