[Elecraft] (Elecraft) XG3 RF generator software port selection

[Nels Nelsen]

Has any one gotten the XG3 RF generator to talk to a laptop just thru a USB
port? I am useing a Windows XP laptop which does not have the old style
com-port 1 with a db-9 connector, it just has the modern USB ports. I am
wondering If I don't have a problem with the USB driver.
When I start up the software that comes with the generator, there is no
selection of a port available in the  "select this port"  portion of the
windows software.
Has any one found a cure for this?
Thanks,
