I tried to do a firmware upgrade on my rio car, but my system cannot find the player. It works fine to find it on ethernet, but can't locate it on the serial connector. Works fine on my Win2k machine, just not my XP machine. I'm sure others are running Windows XP Pro, is this an OS issue or just my machine?

Works fine on my system running Windows XP Home.
Although I have had a couple of minor issues, which are not probably due to Windows XP.

Are you using a real Serial port or one on a USB adapter?
[the latter doesn't work for me - I've tried], so I now use my COM1 Port [I have a USB mouse].
