Hello,

I was connected to my Nortel system through hyperterminal trying to configure some things, and all of the sudden the hyperterminal window changed to a black background with weird colors everywhere and blinking lines....does anyone know what is going on? I've tried to disconnect and reconnect, but it shows up that way every time I log in now.

Thanks
 
wrong baud rate and/or port setting.

I've seen it before when the tty was setup for traffic and at the top of the hour it dumped while the hyperterm session was active. Only way to reccover was to use another tty to disable/reenable the f'up tty.
 
I believe that was it. I had to recreate the connection and it fixed it.

Thanks!
