Hello,

Is it possible to obtain Baud Rates faster than 115200 on PCs? What
should I look for in the hardware that would give me a clue as to how
fast I can get?

I have a Dell with dual processor 3GHz, so I guess the system is
pretty new. I have tried opening the com1 port on hyper terminal with
240300 baud but it gives an error opening port message.

Any ideas or pointers will be very helpful.

Thanks in advance

Makhan
