Hi, just trying out Procomm Plus for Windows V2.1, & faxes work OK, but when I log into a BBS & try to download a file using Zmodem protocol, all I get at the transfer screen is something like this: > *0000000008 Or something like it which keeps repeating. No data comes down except for the above which repeats every 5 secs or so, yet I can log on & browse around the BBS OK. And the only way out is to hit CTRL-X several times to abort the transfer. I've tried changing Com port settings in Windows Control panel (ie flow control) and tried using different comm.drv's in System.INI (tried comm.drv, cybercom.drv, and rhsicomm.drv). My modem is a USR Courier V34+ external on a 16550 UART. Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong, or what to use as an init string as this is driving me nuts! -- Nigel Morgan (reply to:- nigel@wycombe.demon.co.uk) Using a computer is like eating an APPLE....if the first BYTE is sour, ROTate it round and have a NIBBLE on the other side!
