- Have you tried using a program like 'Flush' that will flush all libs and
- deveices that are flushable? I have had a similar problem with different
- term programs leaving the serial port open and this has helped me.
-
- If you don't have or can't find 'Flush' send me email and I'll email it to
- you.
-
- Just had a thought ... I have gone into Baud Bandit, sent the modem an
- 'ATZ' to reset it, then opened another term program, Spot, PortalX, or
- GPFax. I'm trying to remember why? I think my Sportster used to sometimes
- 'hang' like it was open already and this was my reason?
