Re: [NTLK] USB-Serial connection

Thanks Matt.

I have set up a virtual PC in the past too but after going wireless and setting
up a personal web server, I left it behind and clean forgot about the Win98
virtual PC method.

Cheers

Tony

I have used one in the past. But for the life of me I can't find the thing
right now. I know it was not a keyspan. Others have advised the use of
Slowdown.exe. I have found that problematical at best. I use a Win98SE
virtual machine. I use Microsoft's Virtual PC which is free for XP. You can
get an install of Win98SE for next to nothing now days. I had a version from
like six computers ago. I installed the Virtual PC, then Win98SE on the
virtual PC and finally NCU on the virtual Win98SE. I have never had an issue
using either NCU or NTK by this method.

I also have a personal web server set up and use Newtscape for loading
software and NewtonDump which I wrote and is available on my website to
extract information. But both of those require having a network connection.

I suppose that is another technical thing for my blog.
