I installed the program and drivers once. When i try to connect the gryphon to the computer I repeatedly get this error. Then uninstalled and reinstalled and am still getting it. Any help?

Try it again with everything else shut down on the computer.
You should only have pegasus open.
The other thing is that there have been other issues today also with pegasus.
You may have to again later.
I'll post a note on the moderator's board.
Peace!

This sounds a lot like a "driver" problem. What is your operating system?

The issue is related to an inherent port limiting problem with the Windows COM control. It has the nasty habit of only allowing enumeration of 16 COM ports in Visual Basic.

When you installed your USB drivers, it enumerated an emulated serial port and assigned it a port number higher than 16. To correct this perform the following:

• Go to Device Manager (from the run menu, type devmgmt.msc and press [Enter])
• Scroll down to the Ports settings and click the [+] symbol to expand that group
• Right-Click the Power Hungry Performance USB to Serial Controller and select Properties
• Click the [Port Settings] tab at the top of the window
• Click the [Advanced] button
• Under Com Port Number: select an unused serial port number less than 16 (lower numbers are better)
• Click [OK] to save the settings and close out the rest of the windows

If you can't find an unused serial port, you may have to piggyback another serial port. This is generally not a problem as serial ports are often used by devices that aren't frequently plugged in. Cell phones often use them for data transfer so it would be a safe bet that if your cell phone or other similar device isn't plugged in at the same time your programmer is, there won't be a conflict.

I hope this helps.
