[Gmecm] '165 expertise???

[James Panter]

I don't know about l65's in particular but I believe that all these ECM 
connections have serial connection problems to various degrees.   Also the 
devices which "tune" the ECMs like the  chip burners and various 
programmers.  My very limited expertise is that different laptops (I suppose 
based on the BIOS) connect much more easier than others.  For example, I 
tried connecting with a FAST ECM recently for two days with an IBM Thinkpad 
without success trying all the Comm ports settings and Serial port hook-ups, 
then hooked up a Dell and had success immediately.  It gets to be 
discouraging sometimes!.  Jim
