BOE-BOT Connection Problems
I can't seem to keep my BOE-BOT connected to the computer for more than two minutes at a time before it can't identify the stamp anymore. All the cables (Serial port, not USB) are connected and working fine, but it keeps losing connection with the BASIC Stamp. I turn it off, unplug it, wait for fifteen seconds and plug it in and turn it on again and on occasion it shows up, but I have not had much luck with this and it is getting rather repetetive. I don't have much experience with electronics, but is my STAMP malfunctioning?
By losing connection I mean that the Stamp Editor cannot identify the STAMP.
I use Windows XP, if it helps. I'm sorry if this is answered somewhere, but I looked for about two hours without finding anything at all.
Thanks,
Mike

How are you powering the Stamp? Wallwart or Batteries? Are your batteries good?
Is it that your computer is running some other program that is messing up your serial port settings?
