[BRLTTY] Problem with BRLTTY 4.2.1 for Windows

[Ollie]

Hello Michel,
Yes, in fact my friend says this problem arose with Version 4.2.1, 
because in Version 4.1.2 everything worked all right.
Unfortunately I haven't installed BRLTTY in Windows, and have a 
different braille display.
In fact, when I tried installing BRLTTY, I had terrrible problems, 
but i was told that was due to conflict with Jaws.
I have just bought a netbook, where I've only installed NVDA, and I'd 
like to give it another try.
My braille display is a pm display 40, by Freedom Scientific, and 
it's a usb device, but I have no indication of virtual com ports, so 
I don't know what would be the best thing to do.

Take care,
Ollie
