No Idea, but I've had a number of times where it was issues in source
code, rather than other issues that caused problems like this.. For
Example.. The Default Printers.pas caused me problems on many
operatings systems and printers, but the dxPRinters.pas rewrite works
well on everything..

So.. possibly its the delphi interface calls to the vista serial??

wishy washy I know :)
