The cable may be the problem. I originally got one of the software specific
(can't think of the name this moment, but it's a whole package) cables that
are available almost everywhere. I had exactly the same problem. Got an
official Mot cable and the problem went away.

Yup. Works like a champ since I got the real cable. I don't know what the
difference might be, but there must be something. A pin that needs to be
grounded? Something.

Good luck
