Re: Serial adaptor
Should probably be ok. Do you know how to check which com port your computer has it listed as being in?

Re: Serial adaptor
Vista works fine with most adapters. Are you following the proper methods of loading a box ?

Okay. First change baud rate to 115200. If that does not work, try some of the higher COM ports - 5 and up.
Hope that will help.
