Mark,
 
I have just installed some multiport serial cards from http://www.comtrol.com/ on 98 & NT.
They come in 4, 8 and 16 port versions, use 1 interupt and come in PCI or ISA versions.  The only drawback is the price - a bit on the expensive side i'm afraid.
 
Regards
 
Paul Giles.

A 4 or 8 port card I think.
 
Currently running Win98SE and Win2000.
 
What I really need is a recommendation on a particular make/model that works well with 1 IRQ.
 
Thanks

Mark,

How many ports are you looking at expanding to and what operating system
are
you running.

I have used several different cards from 2 port to 16 port under 95/98
& NT,
all with 100% success.


Paul

Hi All

I need more serial ports for my HA PC.

So far I need to connect HomeVision, Caller ID box, Comfort.  The machine
already has 2 ports free so all I need is a third, thought who knows what
I'll need in the future.

Has anyone any experience of a nice multi-port serial card - one of the
ones
that only uses one IRQ?

your advice / experience appreciated.

M.
