The port was fine (I think) before I shut the system down for a week when I went on vacation. When I powered the system up a week later, the port was bad - it is sending continuously. I observed this by monitoring the status of each pin on the line. As soon as the system is powered up, the line goes high - even before the system goes into bootup diagnostics. Any suggestions on what next to check, or what do do? Thanks! Bill Gieske wg@cbnewsm
