I rewrite my questions like this:
I would like to establish serial communication betweeen a computer running Windows XP and another computer running Windows XP, VMWare Player with dos and Windows 3.11.
I can send messages in both directions if I just run Win XP and hyper terminal on both machines but I can not manage to establish communication if I instead use the terminal program in Windows 3.11 in the virtual machine.
This is the settins I am using:
*** Windows XP Device Manager COM3 ***
I/O Range: 03E8 - 03EF
IRQ: 04
Bps: 19200
Data bits 8
Parity: None
Stop Bits: 1
Flow Control: None
*** VMWares vmx fil ***
serial2.present = "TRUE"
serial2.fileName = "COM3"
serial2.startConnected = "TRUE"
serial2.irq = 4
serial2.baseAddr = 0x3e8
(Serial 2 visas som Serial 3 i VMWare)
*** VM Ware Bios ***
