[Elecraft] Problem to save my K3 configuration

Hi Thomas,

glad to hear that is now working.

I had problems with an older version of the Elecraft firmware loader, which
turned out not to be the application but the USB/RS232 drivers.

I had used an other USB/RS232 interface with my Apple Power Book (dual boot
using Boot Camp & Windows XP Professional) a few months ago, and the old and new
USB to serial drivers conflicted, which took a while to figure out. Everything
looked OK in the device manager, for example, but programs like HyperTerminal
(Microsoft) failed when using the pseudo COM port.  

It might be worth while to remove all the USB to Serial drivers on the computer
which is causing problems, reboot, and then do a fresh install of the drivers
for your adapter (if possible check the Internet for any updates), before
inserting the USB to RS 232 adapter. Also the standard installer for USB drivers
in Windows is not the best, so you may have better results with the installer
software which came with the adapter.

Just a thought...
