[1275] Failed to create virtual serial port

[pattt]

Hi,

I just buy SerialTools Pro .NET Desktop and get the following error message:

[1275] Failed to create virtual serial port

My code is very simple:

vport = new VPort();
vport.ComPort = 4;
vport.Created = true;

I'm building with Visual Studio 2010, x86, .net 3.5
Customer is operating Windows 7 64 bits.

What am I doing wrong ?

Patrick.

Hi Patrick

The problem is with installing on a 64bit machine.

I had the same problem. See the recent post (moved up in the list) titled 'SerialTools on Windows 7 x64' for the simple but odd solution (my post is towards the bottom).

The same post also describes what you may need to do to run/compile in 64-bit.

Hope this helps

Bruce
