I have a problem with a FTDI USB-to-Serial converter. It registers itself as Com4 under WindozXT, I can talk to it with HyperTerm, but the MSCOMM widget in Visual Basic 6 cannot find it. Anybody have a fix for this?
You might also try my Signal Generator program. It talks to a PIC via a com port and was written in VB6. It won't operate of course w/o the hardware, but you can see if it recognizes the adapter. I haven't used it with the FTDI chips but it works great with Prolific and others I've tried.
