Hi
I just got the usb cfa634. i have hooked it up on to my pc and when i start up the screen displays some special characters, the alphabet in upper and lower case, and "eeprom test ok." Then it goes to a blank screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner. Once windows gets booted and i can start CC or lcd smartie (i've tried both to see if it was a software problem) the screen starts filling up with random characters until i close the program. I made sure the settings were at 19200 on com3 (where windows installed it). and i have also tried changing to com1 to see if that might solve the problem, but it has had the same results. i had downloaded the drivers from the cf site before i hooked up the lcd and made sure that the lcd is listed in both com/lpt ports and in the usb section of device manager. except what i have mentioned above, i have not made any other settings changes.
