Hei! Etter litt en del leting på nett og en datakyndig kompis fikk jeg endelig FMS til å virke 100% I Vista. Her er løsningen:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the VISTA PC has no COM port, FMS will not start.
To solve the problem a "vitual" communications port (COM port) must be installed
1. Click on the Windows [START] button, then double-click "Control panel".
2. Double-click on [Hardware]. The wizzard is launched. Click on [Next]. The search process starts and will take some time.
3. Mark "Yes, I have already connected the hardware."
Then click [Next].
4. Scroll fully down and select "Add a new hardware device."
Then click [Next].
5. Mark "Install the hardware that I manually select from a list."
Then click [Next].
6. Select "Ports (COM & LPT).
Then click [Next].
7. In the left-hand window select "Standard port type", in the right-hand window selectt "Communications port".
Then click [Next].
8. Then click [Next] again and then [Finish].
9. In the Control panel double-click [System], select the register Hardware and click [Device manager].
10. Scroll down to "Ports (COM & LPT)" and expand by double-clicking on "Ports (COM & LPT)".
11. Now you should see the installed communications port marked with a yellow sign containing an exclamation mark
(eg. Communications port (COM4)).
12. Open the Note pad program and enter the text below between, but not including, the dashed lines:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM]
"\\Device\\Serial0"="COM1"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Replace the figure "1" behind COM by the one, you found in step 11.
13. Store the file as "FMS-COM-Port-Fix.reg" on the desktop.
14. Double-click the icon on the desktop and confirm the appearing questions by clicking [OK].
15. Copy the file "d3dm.dll" into the FMS program directory.
Now the virtual communication port should be installed and FMS will start.
Dersom noen av dere har sett denne fremgangsmåten og ikke fått det til så merk dere at det opprinnelig står:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HIKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM]
"\\Device\\Serial0"="COM1"
----------------------------------------------------------------
dette er nå endret til:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM]
"\\Device\\Serial0"="COM1"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Altså HKEY, ikke HIKEY på begynnelsen, noe som gjør at det fungerer smertefritt
Håper noen får nytte av dette!
