Thread: *Release*[SAT RADIO] Alpha 3

Well there is a huge list of channels in the box, but when I try to open one, it doesn't let me, and on the boxes below it, they say "UPDATING"... hmmmm

hmmm
Run this program, tell me if it errors out and what it says.

Oh, and make sure the xm proggy is closed before running comtest

lol.. what a boring program.. nope, didn't error out at all.. nothing happened.. still open as a matter of fact.

yup it was closed..

I'll have to help tomorrow.

K, tomorrow, I'll try it on a different computer.. Thanks for all your help frodo!!

try booting your pc with the cable unplugged, then plug in the serial cable after you have finished booting and open the xm program.

I was having some weird problems with the serial connection as well.

I can use the XMD on my laptop like its nothing, it will plug in and unplug all day long and work without restarting. My desktop however, is very picky. Sometimes it will work, other times it won't.

Is there a program to refresh the serial connections/com port?

Restarting the computer and then plugging in the serial cable sounds like the next step for you. That had worked for me once or twice.
