I'm thinking my best option might be to get a new PR4, and try again on Windows?
I would not waste my time / money. To Windows, PR3 or PR4 are one and the same. Same driver, same setup.? If you can't get the PR3 to work, you will hit the same wall with the PR4.
Also the PR4 does not like PAGE mode and causes it's own garbage.? The PR3 is not prone to this and works as well under Page or Direct.?
I have both a PR3 and a PR4. spend most of the time using the PR3.? Used it under WinXp, Win7, Win8, Win10. I still use it under WinXP on a very old Lenovo T60 2Ghz/2Gbram.?
Used it since NEW and currently under JMRI 4.19.3 ..? I arranged Device Manager so that no matter where I plug the PR3 in, it is always seen as the same COM port. Saves a bunch of aggravation.
If the PR3 runs under Digitrax Soundloader (even after power off/on :-) ), that rules out a driver, cable, port, PR3 issue...? unfortunately..?
