my boe bot

Archiver

Hi!

I just build my boe bot according to the manual, but I can't get it
to interface with both my desktop and laptop. I keep getting these:

BASIC Stamp II detected but not responding, check power supple

OR

BASIC Stamp II not responding.. check serial cable connection. Check
power supply.

But I have 4 1.5V batteries and the green light is strong and lit and
I double check my serial connection cable. All fine. I'm lost. How
can I get it to work? Is it a software problem? The serial
connector itself? What? Any ideas?

Thanks!
