Thank you! I will gladly test it on Friday. I'm sorry I can't test it earlier, but I'm reluctant to test things like this remotely. @ Jeremy: Thank you for the detailed response! I will make sure to bring a multimeter with me and check the pin connections on my nullmodem cable. I'm still curious why this cable worked with 7.x with the same configuration.
