[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 995385, member: 176704"] vma Not sure if the following counts as a small "glitch",: Just rejigged the whole physical layout of my small ACER system and plugged the S/A unit lead into a different (USB2) port, whereas it had previously been plugged into a USB3 port - and then the s/w would open but would not START the scan and I got a "Com Port 3 unavailable" type of message. Had to re-extract the s/w from the ZIP file (to the same disk location) and over-write the previously-installed executable (both the same version) before it would START the scan and display the spectrum with the S/A unit connected to a USB2 port again. Two possible thoughts: - Does the s/w look for the 1st USB port into which the USB lead is plugged when first installed and activated, and does not then work properly if you moved that lead to another port (unless you do what I just did)? - OTOH could it be due to the differences between USB2 & USB3 ports because I , for access reasons, then moved the USB lead to another USB2 port and there was no similar problem?
