Does BasicX run on Win XP? I've heard of troubles people have had with new very fast machines having serial problems; any experiance with such a problem? I'm looking at getting a laptop and want to make sure my BasicX work is compatible. Thanks, Jeff Smith

I'm using BasicX on a Dell 1.8 GHz running XP Pro. Also use a USB to Serial hub to get the extra serial ports I need.

I am running a 500 mhz dell with windows 2000 professional and I have been having problems downloading to the basicx. I can reset my serial port and that will solve the problem for a while. Everything else runs ok though on these ports.

What version of the compiler are you using? -- Frank Manning -- NetMedia, Inc.

Thank you everyone for the comments. I have also had a problem with the downloader but only on the 2.1 beta; closing the com port and reopening it solves the problem for a little while but it will eventually return. The downloader will occationally halt just before the download. I'm running a desktop W98se.
