I obtained MacTest version 1.0 for IIfx and it showed that my serial port failed the serial port test but advised setting the IIfx Serial Switch to 'Compatible'. This I did and then my machine passed all of MacTest, but the communications programs still had the same complaints. I went so far as to run VersaTerm through the printer port from both the hard disk and a floppy and it works fine. What else can I do to determine whether my serial port is sick? My IIfx is still under warranty, but I would hate to lose its use if there is something else I could do to solve or better isolate the problem.
