COM PORT

[Dan]

Does anyone know how to setup an additional com port in XP
that does not need a physical device to work. I set one up
but it is showing unable to start device error.
I need this for Shiva Dialout.

Thanks

You need to use a virtual serial port driver/device. The standard serial
driver can only be used with physical hardware.
I can't recommend any virtual COM devices cause I have never really looked.
Google will probably get you somewhere.

Should not Shiva be able to help you? They made Dialout.
