want to change a baud rate
but... i have no idea how, or how to find the correct port?
im also not quite sure what info you guys would need other then that im using windows 7.
i apologize for not being very computer savy, and thank anyone for thier help!
here is the instructions i was given
i need to locate the cable and be able to change the baud rate
1. Go toStart > Control Panel > System and
Maintenance, then double click System.
2. In the System Properties screen, click Device
Manager, then double click Ports (Com & LPT).
3. From the Ports (Com& LPT) list, right click on
RadioShack USB to Serial Cable. A drop-down
menu appears.
4. From the drop-down menu, click Properties
>Port Settings > Advanced. The Advanced
Settings screen appears. Change the Com
Port at the bottom left of the screen to the one
assigned for this cable.
once i get to device manager there isnt any ports button or link??
