Allen Bradley PMCK/B Driver Issues

[ibdogged]

Hellooo

Just bought me a used pmck/b card off ebay. My old laptop has XP on it and I can't seem to get the right driver installed for it. When I have a successful driver install and try to get rslinx communicating over DH+ 230k baud, I get an error message saying that PMCK/A does not support 230k baud.
How do I confirm I have the correct driver for PMCK/B ?
Thanks

Odds are your network is not 230k most are 56k, there are two drivers... one is for the hardware (your PC) you can download the drivers here

Here is the manual http://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/literature/documents/um/1784-um519_-en-p.pdf

The other driver is in RSLinx, see John's link for that setup, like I said odds are you do not need that speed
