Please log in for more thread options If you haven't already, you should open a support incident with MS. Or
at least post in the partner managed newsgroup. You can find it on
PartnerSource under "Discussions".
Get a screen shot of the error dialog, better yet, the entire screen.
Were you getting the same message with PC Charge, or something different?
Do you have any OPOS MSR or PINPads connected/configured?
You can easily do card processing over a dialup internet connection as
long as it is connected before you scan the card. Can you get a solid
land line connection? You could do this either through a modem and a
windows connection, or using a router with a RS-232 port - there are a
bunch of them available. Netgear makes one, but it's not the greatest
device in the world - look around and see if you can find one you like...
