this is my update:
So far, I have tried using the driver from 10Gear as you suggested. Either I've done something wrong (each time I had downloaded it) or is just won't work for connection,
I have been in contact w/ Microsoft re Windows XP problems, theyfixed unrelated problems (so I could make sure I had the most current updates, etc.) and said they couldn't help me w/ weather station problem.
That I would need to try a forum. (funny, I thought that was what I was doing here).
I have again contacted Lacrosse and they claim its windows xp and all the update(grades?) they are doing. When I tried to pin her down as to what could be done to resolve problem, "they are running tests and if they find a solution, I will be notified"
So short of buying the other adapter, & how do we know it will work w/ this weather station?, any other ideas?
Thanks
Also on a slightly different problem, but potentially related, how do I get my email address changed here at forum. You know, new provider, new email address................
thanks again
