No, no USB-Serial adapter in use. However, I did have the cable hooked up to a USB extension hub. I have unplugged the cable from that and plugged it in to an outlet in the back of my computer. So far so good. Hopefully that was problem. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.

Thanks for the quick reply. I really appreciate it.
