I have some software I have been working on. I did all the programing on my laptop using a usb to serial adaptor. Every thing works perfectly when I run the software on my laptop with the adaptor. However when I test out the software on my desktop with a built in com port it ends up sending some of the information but the rest seems to get droped or moved. The device I am dealing with is a serial VFD display. I can get my software to work on my normal com but I have to put a Sleep 1 command after it sends one line of text to the display. That would be fine but eventualy the software locks up on my desktop pc.
Basicly I need to figure out what would be the difference between the usb to serial adaptor and a regular com port. I will post my entire project on here as soon as I get to work. If any one has any ideas please post them. Below is the documentation for the display I am using.
