I need some guidance with a problem I am having with my 396t.
I just bought a new Vista machine (I know, its brutal). I can't get my 396t to connect to either ARC396 software or the Uniden control/programming software. I am using the USB cable directly to the port on the side of the scanner and both programs say the com port is in use. I have re-booted the machine and uninstalled the USB ports and let them re-install. Still nothing.
I also tried to change permissions on the program and folder so I had full rights. Still nothing.
I thought it was a bad cable but got the firmware 2.00.07 to reinstall. I went and tried the scanner and wire on another Vista laptop I used previously and it worked fine. My only issue there is the laptop is broken and I need to program on the fly sometimes. So I won't be keeping that machine running.
Just looking for some ideas.
