Ah, the code is 19 years old. Am impressed it ran. Do you know what version of Windows the previous owner was using?
It might be worth:
1, Try a newer serial port cable
2, If running on a modern version of Windows run TheSky6 in an appropriate compatibility mode ie if was running on W98 run the TheSky6 application in W98 compatibility mode on W8, W10 or W11
3, Get TheSky6 licence transferred to you, set up SB account and raise problem on their help groups.
4, Consider buying the previous owner’s laptop with working code on from them. 🙂
5, Consider updating to TheSkyX plus necessary add ons – expensive possibly.
