You're using Windows. 1/2 ;) Seriously, it's a Windows problem. Probably a bug in one of the of the USB-serial drivers (either the one for the ARM_USB_OCD adapter or the one for the USB-serial cable). Try it without the ARM_USB_OCD plugged in. Try it with a different USB-serial cable (one that uses a chip from a different vendor). It might also be Hyperterminal. Though it's a buggy piece of dreck, I don't think it's the cuplit in this case -- but you could try something like Teraterm. Or you could try using Linux... -- Grant -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss
