I have a MicroVAX II which has started garbling and losing characters output

it, but that no longer seems to be the case.
I was just wondering if anyone else has ever come across this failure mode?
I?ve seen similar with under two occasions.
1) Non-compliant USB adaptor - Doesn?t fully support RS232C levels
2) Poor grounding, noise in the data lines - long cable runs or devices on different sides
of the (US) power main.
I have not dealt with component problems on the KA630 itself.
