I recently acquired a new computer to run my computrainer. My wife has kicked me off the home office computer and into the basement with the cats. It's actually a better place to work out except for the occaisional waft of dung. In order to get the 3D software downstairs I copied the installed files to CD and moved them across this way. I know it's best to reinstall but I got the 3D V3 when it was downloadable for free and would prefer to not have to pay $80 for it.

My problem is that when I start up Computrainer 3D V3 which I have updated with the patch:

(spoken of in an earlier thread), the program does not recognize that my bike is connected to the serial port. It does recognize it if I change the view to be my character and either of the spinscan screens. I have checked that the port assignment is correct and the other computrainer programs (the challenge and coaching software) do recognize the connection.

Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it.

Cheers in advance,

Richard
