Hi Secondgunman, thanks for your response. I did manage to get it working with the 80 gig maxtor ide hd as the primary master, the dvd rw as the primary slave and the 250 gig maxtor sata as secondary master, but as a storage drive. I know that windows will be a lot faster if i use the sata as...

I can sort of fake this using the SetActiveWindow(int hWnd) function and then using SendKeys.Send() to send the text. Kind of dirty but it is working.

I am capturing the window handle of an external application (or any external app) using the GetForegroundWindow() api function. Once I have the handle I want to locate a field and send write text to that field. It seems that in VB6 there was a way to locate what the field of a window was after...

Hi, Thanks for the tip, but I have actually tried to implement this since my last post...in C# it is this. char esc = (char)27; but when i try to do a myPort.Write(esc) it seems as if the command isn't getting sent. thanks

Does anyone out there know how I can simulate sending an Escape key press and append it to a string that I am writing to an open port. private Rs232 myPort = new Rs232(); try { // open the port myPort.Open(1, 9600, 8, Rs232.DataParity.Parity_None, Rs232.DataStopBit.StopBit_1, 4096)...

This article has info on how to talk to a COM port and a class called Rs232 written in C# that works as your wrapper: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=08E3D5F8-033D-420B-A3B1-3074505C03F3&displaylang=en It helped a lot, but I am still not there all the way for sending...

Has anyone interacted with a RS232 (serial port)? I've found a couple of examples of how to do it in VB, but I really need to know how I can do this using C#. Studio 2005 is going to have an assembly System.IO.Ports that will handle this, but for now (using .NET 2003) everything I have found...

Ok got it recognized now...I had to set the jumpers to master/slave on my primary hd and dvd drives. Then I had to download Maxblast 4 from maxtor's site, create the boot disk and format the drive using maxblast. Oh yes the SATA drive had to be plugged into SATA1 or SATA3 (master ports) on my...

Ok that's the problem, I've installed all of the drivers from the motherboard cd, but Windows was already installed prior to installing the sata. Is there a way to force windows to install the drive post installation? My primary is an IDE drive that has windows already installed. Thanks

That's what I was afraid of but Maxtor's lousy support site says they do not offer drivers for their SATA drives. They say that they should be included with Windows 2000 SP4 or Windows XP. I have Windows 2000 Professional with SP4 installed and I even reapplied the service pack to see if it...

Hi, I currently have a windows 2000 professional machine, intel pentium 4 3.0 ghz. I recently bought a new motherboard and processer and just bought a new hard drive that is a serial ata maxtor maxline plus 2. When I installed it and booted up it seems to recognize it in the bios during boot...
