Horror Story - Laptop com port again

Caution

if you are using a no-com-port laptop, with a USB-to-COM adapter,

DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL Microchip's MPLAB v6.10

The adapted COM port was already working - it no longer functions.

Now I cannot program Stamps.

I'm getting really tired of progress.

[edit] Some programming is back .... reinstalled the driver for the COM port .... looks like it was clobbered in installing the MPLAB !
Cost me 8 unpleasant hours.
