    I have it as com4 [prolific usb-to-serial comm port (COM4)],. I changed the info from 96000 to 115200l8lNl1. I disabled comocom. Same error under device manager: device cannot start (code 10)
    {not enough quota}
    Not enough virtual memory or paging file quota is available to complete the specified operation.

    I disabled comocom in device manager. I made the prolific usb-to-serial comm port (COM4) to 152000l8lNl1. Device status says cannot start (code 10)
    {Not Enough Quota}

    My laptop is not communicating with the receiver. It's the same null modem cable and serial adapter I used before, and it worked fine.

    I think I need a RS232 compatible with windows 8 64 bit to work with my new laptop. I'll purchase one over the weekend unless someone doesn't think that is the case. The one I had was to a windows vista a couple years back. I'm thinking it is a compatibility issue.

    I finally got a compatible usb serial adapter. The rq sssp says intiializing serial communication: done and connected to card server
    Client ready waiting for requests..... but no tv from my viewsat ultra

    I am trying to use windows sssp setup for dummies with ultra packedge

    I've installed this into the receiver:
    1 load the cleaner bin
    2 load PFTAUSW-070421U.pgm
    3 load PFTAUSW-080328U-SSSP-V1.pgm


    this is my info in my rqsssp client notepad:
    serial_port=com5 (which I have the usb serial adapter connected to)
    serial_port_settings=115200l8lNl1 (which I changed in device manager to that setting)
    byte_write_delay=200
    receiver_protocol=0
    ignore_caid=0
    return_single_cw=0
    background_execution=0
    debug_level=2
    log_to_console=1
    log_to_file=0
    logfile_name=/var/bin/rq-sssp=client.log
    control_words_timeout=4
    card_server_url1_0=newcamd://XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    suggestions? am i missing something?

    I also tried editing based on what Shark1959 posted. Only three lines are different from what I have above:
    caid_mappings=1815:1815 ( I used these numbers because that was what I had before.)
    background_execution=1
    debug_level=1

    still no luck.

    Wrong protocol: see this:

    # SSSP protocol variant
    # 0 - Captiveworks SSSP Protocol (Captiveworks receivers)
    # 1 - Coolsat SSSP Protocol (Coolsat receivers)
    # 2 - Gbox SSSP Protocol (Digiwave, Technomate and many other EU receivers)
    receiver_protocol=0

    Viewsat doesnt use captiveworks protocol as you have it set--try coolsat

    At least your new adapter is working... the old adapter may have used a Chinese knock-off chip. I had the same problem and found an older Prolific driver since the newer driver checks to see if it is a genuine Prolific adapter and disables it if it's not...

    Once you have the physical connection, you need to make sure you have the correct com# your serial adapter is at. You can go to device manager to ports (com and lpt) on your computer/laptop.

    Do you have the ultra sssp setup and files? Here is the link:
    http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php...etup-and-files

    Open both files.
    Follow the directions. Refer to entry #20 and #21 in this thread. It worked for me after I edited the receiver_protocol=1 for my viewsat ultra.

    Hope this helps.
