serial cable
« on: July 21, 2003, 01:54:32 PM »
Im looking to play adf games on my a600, and i want to connect using a serial (null modem) cable. Ive seen conflicting things over the net about this. Some say that i can just use a standard null modem cable that connect pc's to pc's, while other sources say that the amiga has a differnent serial pin layout. Even then, ive seen 3 different pc to amiga pin layouts.


Can some one straighten me out here? I really would like to just buy a standard unmodified pc null modem cable. I this isnt possible, can anyone point me out to where i can buy a pc to amiga null modem cable???

Thanks
