[Elecraft] KIO3B Installation Problem

[Don Wilhelm]

Buddy,

Load new drivers in the computer.  The computer not indicating the COM 
port assigned is a computer failure.
After loading the correct drivers, go into Device Manager and open the 
ports section - unplug the USB cable and observe what goes away.
Then plug the USB cable in again and see what is added.  If it does not 
show the assigned COM port, the computer has a problem.

During the time that it took for my replacement board to arrive, my computer in the shack failed.  I purchased a new desk top computer and after installing the new board in my K3 I found that it would not sync.  I checked the devise manager for the port list and found no list.  I have tried everything to get them to show up in the list with no luck.
