Are you using a USB/Serial adapter? If so, which one?

In the help files, under trouble shooting:

USB to Serial adapter in use:

Use only quality USB adapters such as the SocketCom PCMCIA card adapter or Keyspan USB-Serial adapter (part # USA-19HS).
Use of poor quality adapters will result in poor performance, data corruption or Windows "Blue Screen".

The belkin is of poor quality and is often problematic. I recomend purchasing a keyspan adapter or a PCMCIA adapter.
