    use an USB to serial adapter.. something like
    http://www.melabs.com/products/accessry.htm

    now you can find those about everywhere.

    Or something like TAIT programmer
    http://www.ic-prog.com/index1.htm

    i can't comment on that one...

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.

    Hi,

    Development on a PC without a serial port it's almost impossible.
    You will need a serial port while debugging or when your program inside
    the PIC uses the serial port to communicate with a PC or another device.

    The USB to serial adapter is one solution.

    Personally I prefer a PC Card (PCMCIA) with real UARTs.

    * * * *

    High End PC Cards:

    (16550 compatible UARTS and compatibility with 16650, 16750 & 16950).

    DUAL SERIAL I/O Cards with removable and non removable DB-9 cables.

    http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/def...spx?EDC=104101

    PDF manual:
    http://www.socketcom.com/pdf/io/dioug.pdf

    SINGLE SERIAL I/O Cards with removable and non removable DB-9 cables.
    http://www.socketcom.com/product/serial.asp?Type=Single
    http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/def...spx?EDC=237579

    OS: Windows 95OB/98SE/Me/2000/XP.

    (removable DB-9 cables = you can leave the card inside the slot).

    * * * *

    Low cost PC Card

    (UART Chipset Oxford CF950, 16C950 compatible).

    Low cost dual serial I/O Pc Card
    http://www.startech.com/ststore/Item...0&tab=a&mt=p40
    http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/def...spx?EDC=520863

    PDF manual:
    http://www.startech.com/ProductManuals/CB2S650.pdf

    The CB2S650 supports hot-swapping so you’ll be able to connect, use, and swap your serial printers,
    digital cameras, PDAs, modems, or any other serial devices without even powering your laptop down.

    OS: Windows 9x/ME/NT 4/2000/XP/Server 2003 and up, Linux 2.4x and up

    * * * *

    Best regards,

    Luciano

    i'm reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally not sure of what i say now, some can confirm. Probably you'll need to use an external power supply or have some kind of level shifter that use the USB power line to raise the voltage...

    i remind a previous post somewhere here, i'll try to find it and come back with the link.
