I can confirm that hardware flow control has to be turned off in Windows
2000 Professional as well.

Can you try this experiment for me?
Cold reset the unit. Presumably, the serial won't be working, but
don't touch it or the touch screen. After a few seconds, the LCD
should blank out. Then try typing on the serial. Does the LCD
come back on?
Another thing - do you have hardware handshaking (flow control) turned
off? I've found this necessary, at least on my Linux machines.
