- Try cybercom.drv , it's free ware. If you want, you can pay for
- Kingcom or turbocom. The problem with overruns, in your case, could be
- due to the fact that Win's comm.drv has the interrupt trigger level
- set at 14, Uart chip is 16, which means that your app only has 2
- characters in which read from the FIFO buffer. And also Com.drv only
- enables the FIFO buffer on the 16550 for receive only. Try this
- first.
