XP SLOW COM1 TRANSFER

by arthyee . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

Hi All,

Previously using Windows 98, I have no problem transferring batches of scanned barcodes stored from a scanner to the pc using the com port.
Trasferring of the barcodes were fast and it took only a few seconds to upload 1000++ barcodes.

However, using windows xp, the uploading of data seems to pause a while, and it happens a few times during 1 session. Have tried setting the com port configuration; the same as used in windows 98 but still fail.

mode com1:9600,n,8,1,p

Anyone out there knows what’s going on?
