Comment:

I have an old DOS program that is running on a DOS partion. It has no serial ports. This program needs to connect via a serial port. It has several USB ports. Is there anyway to emulate a Serial Port over USB? If not, is there any good serial PCMCIA cards that work in DOS?
Thanks,
Michael

PCMCIA cards require "Card and Sockets Services" software, but it is possible that the Panasonic version 2.15 USBASPI driver will recognise the USB port without this software, it is a question of experimentation. If you require C&SS software the most mature is available from:
