My system locks up or I get Windows General Protection Faults when
using my serial RF Reader on a PC running Windows.

This is an interference problem and occurs if you are using a serial
extension cable over 80 feet long in combination with our F36 9-pin
serial cable or F34 25-pin serial cable shipped before 9/15/01, or you
have built your own cable (over 80 ft) and are not using our F36 or F34
cable.
All F36 9 pin serial cables shipped after 9/15/01 have pins 4,6,7, and 8
cut at the DB 9 end of the cable. If you have one of the older cables or
have built your own, you need to cut pins 4,6,7, and 8 at the 9-pin end
of the cable; see page 8 for details on which pins should remain
connected.
All F34 25 pin serial cables shipped after 9/15/01 have pins 4,5,6,8,and
20 cut at the DB25 end of the cable. If you have one of the older cables
or have built your own, you need to cut pins 4,5,6,8, and 20 at the 25-
pin end of the cable; see page 8 for details on which pins should remain
connected.
