TMS 205 woes

[mjhubbard]

I just bought the Koolance TMS 205. It does not work. It will not connect to the software even though I have followed the instructions exactly several times.

I saw on the forums Here that this is a known issue since 2009 on TMS 200 boards. Could this be the problem with mine? Is there a way to fix this without sending my board all the way back, which by the way, means my computer is dead for a week.
