In the above, it seams that you have problem with a program rather than the
board, have you tried another program?
I use it most with Blitzin for online play an an own made program for brodcast
and haven't had any problem. Other program I have tried is Shredder Classic (no
problem), Chess Partner (no problem), Chess Assistant (no problem if you use a
comport <= 4).
I tried the attended Fritz 7 (with F6 engine), but this program seem too buggy
in the DGT interface so I put it away.

If this is a problem with the board after all, one thing could be that you have
some electro magnetic devices (monitor or speakers) near the board (<70cm).
