WHen I plug into my laptop, my laptop recognizes the USB->serial adaptor and then I can connect via the profilux control program.

I don't know if it makes a difference or not but it might also be worth trying a new cable.
I will be trying that for sure, I was wondering if there was on adapter for the RS232 to go to a USB. Thanks for the info Chris.
