Hello Robbin,
I found a 9-way socket and dug out my Win 95 Laptop that I Used to use with Laptimer 2000...  It still works with the parallel/printer connection but I have not been able to get it to work with the Serial Port :-( 

I also tried the serial connection on a Win XP computer.I use this for a label printer that operates via a serial port so I know that the port works ok. Sadly again I had no success with getting Laptimer to work through that serial port. 

Hope you have more success.

hello leo,

I just saw your message, I have been working intensively on it today, I can't get it to work either, I have attached some photos of the situation,

Do you happen to know if there is other lap counter software that works with a 9 pin? and how should it be soldered?

I'm going to buy a D-Sub 25 connection and connect it to the PCI port on my motherboard, then I can switch the pins and it should work, this will arrive on Tuesday and I'll know if it works

If I have installed the printer port in my PC, which pin numbers should I solder, and what do I indicate in laptimer 2000 under the heading ports?
