Hi, i am having some trouble with my Ti85 link port, when i connect my
parallell interface to my computer the ti seems to hang ... the cursor is
blinking veeeeery slow ...

Have any of you experienced any problems like this?

i'm thinking of removing the connector on the circuit board and put an
external 2.5mm connector there instead because i doubt that i can find an
connector that looks like the original connector :-)

i have checked the connections all the way from the calculator (inside) to
the parallel-interface ... and it seems ok ... they all worked.

i even tried the link with another computer (old ps/2 286) and it didn't
work there either ... the problem remains.

please help! :-)
