Error message: No Basic Stamp Found

I have a Boebot Basic Stamp 2 Board of Education - USB. The power source for my Boebot is four AA batteries. When I try to identify my Boebot on the computer, I get a "yes" in loopback and "yes" in echo, but nothing else. When I try to run a program, an error message appears: "No BASIC Stamp Found". For some reason the computer is not recognizing the Boebot. I've changed the latency timer from 16 to 1 and I've changed the batteries on the Boebot. Does anyone have any other suggestions of what I can do?

Thank you,
Andy, age 13

    This error message is almost always due to one of two things ... Insufficient power ... or ... Bad serial connection. The power switch has to not be in the off position. The batteries have to be good. Try a different USB cable if you have another one. Try reinstalling the Stamp Editor and the USB driver that comes with it. If you still get the message, call Parallax Tech Support. They're nice folks and they know their stuff.
