i have The kodak 210 zoom connected to a 9way plug to a 9 to 25 way adapter to a 25 pin com port Winkle, Assuming you are running Windows 95 or 98, and trying to connect to your COM 2, your first step would be to insure that no other devices are using that COM port, i.e. modem, etc. Next in your system BIOS make sure your COM 2 port is enabled. The usual IRQ address is 02F8 and IRQ 3. Next from within the control panel open up the system icon and tab to your device manager. Next go to the "Ports" icon and click on it to find the ports tree. If com 2 is present, REMOVE IT. This will allow the motherboard COM 2 to become available for external devices. This should work and will not screw up your system. Hope this helps, MT
