Windows 95/98/ME supports up to 128 serial ports, from COM1 to COM128. In order to fully
utilize the advanced multi-process and multi-thread features of Windows 95/98/ME, Moxa
developed pure 32-bit virtual device port drivers (VxD) that are compliant with communication
drivers (VCOMM). The drivers conform to the Win32 COMM API standard.
You can download the drivers from the MOXA website. For information on developing your own
serial programming applications, please refer to Chapter 9.
Before installing the software, be sure to install the hardware first. For details on installing the
hardware, please refer to Chapter 2.
The overall procedure for installing the
drivers is shown on the right. A newly
