yep... or a new one

most Dell laptops come with a serial port, but you could always find something a little older on ebay for cheap.

Well that won't help mine is 3 months old. Shooting But that's a whole other thread. I'll figure something out.

So you did try the adapter and it did nothing? Is there a specific reason why it won't work in this app?

I haven't tested anything myself, but I think my buddy Dave is using a USB - serial adapter...

Got it from Moates, if I recall...

Sorry. Do you mean that you have a Serial to USB adapter and it works with your ALDL OR that you have an ALDL with a USB plug?

hopefully the usb to serial (db9 is it?) works but if not I have a question that is probably stupid. Are the serial ports one way? like if i have a female one for a monitor on my laptop can I use a female to male adapter for the aldl cable?
