[Coco] drivewire help

[Rocky Hill]

Does Windows list all of your available serial ports? You can check available ports and assigned COM number in device manager under "Ports".
Did you run the DriveWire "Simple Config Wizard"? If you haven't, you can run it from the Config menu option.
Does DriveWire list the available ports?
Did you select the correct instance of the DriveWire server? If you haven't you can do so under "File-->Choose Instance"

 The Color computer is not recognizing Drivewire. I suspect it is a problem
in the windows machine, I've used the same boot disk for NitrOS-9 for over
a decade, and it worked fine before I had to reinstall windows in the
Wintel machine.
