I'll look at the code to see if there is anything that can be done to make the program less susceptible to the problem. One solution is to lower the Baud rate (which would need to be done both on the camera and in the application / MAX) but would make the frame grabbing even slower. Hopefully we can avoid having to do that.

My laptop uses an Intel Premium M730, at 1.6 GHz, and 512 MB memory. I don't find any option in WinXP2 to increase the buffer size. The RS-232 serial port is built in to the mother board. No other app is running while LabView is running.
If this is a buffer size problem, why does it work more often than not? When I get a partial frame, it is anywhere from 10% to 90% of the full frame.
