I started using Windows 2000 Professional and Protoedit which seemed to work well until I tried to learn an IR code. Good old Dr. Watson tells me it is an "access violation"

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thank you.

Known problem -- works on some systems, not on others. No known workaround. Basically, don't learn in ProntoEdit -- do it on the Pronto.

Does Phillip's have any idea what may cause it. Could it have to do with legacy hardware (pre-MMX)? Or could it be caused by other hardware like NIC and additional serial ports.

By the way can any other Com port be used other than Com 1.

Apparantly COM1 through 4 will work. I have it on COM2 myself.

Glitches are here and there on win2k with several pre-win2k softwares. Having problem with learning IR codes also. I placed back on win98se station - no more problem encountered.

I also had consistent crashes when learning with Win2k.
Then while trying to solve another problem I tried dropping it in the cradle while learning and it worked.

Try it (if you have cradle).
