[Elecraft] K3 Window 8.1 serial port issue

[cx7tt at 4email.net]

Hola,

Trying to update my K3 software prior to setting up my remote capability.

New computer with OS Win 8.1....I plugged the Prolific cable between
RS232 on K2 and USB port on PC.  Found the port via control panel,
device manager and the PC recognizes that it is a Prolific device and
even updated the driver software. However, it states, "This device
cannot start" (Code 10) and "A device which does not exist was specified".

I disabled and then enabled but still no luck. Any ideas?

Gracias
Tom
