Problem with Serial to USB adapter, BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board
Hi, I'm new to the robotics world,programmin g and microcontroller world. I had bought a BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board rev D a·few years ago, read through the What Is A Micro-Controller Manual, did some things with it, and put it away. I recently pulled it out and decided I wanted to build a Boe-Bot With it. I installed the newest editor software, attatched the battery to the board, plugged it in and when I try to run a program I get the following error message: ________________________________

I'm using a Dynex·USB-Serial adapter, Windows Vista Home Basic.

Does your USB-serial show up in your Device Manager as a COM port?
From the PBASIC IDE:
Edit in the Toolbar
· Preferences from the drop-down menu
··· --> Stamp Mode and Ports, Default Com Port
Directive in the Toolbar
· Port from the drop-down menu
··· --> available ports shown
