NTLK NCU no connect!

So, I want to send my Newton to the Doc and get it
upgraded...I found a copy of NCU, installed it and it
ran fine. I connected the cable and everything is
connected correctly to Serial port 2. I start NCU,
select serial port 2 and set it for the maximum. I
then hit Dock and connect on the Newton. NCU shows
connected to the Newton, but the Newton times out
because it isn't getting anything back from NCU. (btw,
this is on a Windows 98 running a Celeron 500) After
the Newton times out, I restart NCU and try again. It
will never again acknoledge the Newton until I restart
the computer. Then it will do the same thing. I've
done this 20+ times. Once it did connect and I was
able to start a backup, but it crapped out half way
through and I haven't been able to get a connection
since. Any ideas?
Thanks
