Some more details would be helpful.  In particular: what type of Apple
II do you have, what serial card are you using, which slot is it
plugged into (if relevant), how is it configured, what other cards
are plugged into the slot, which version of Z-Link, etc...

If you are getting a "REBOOT SYSTEM" message at the bottom of the
screen, that is an unclaimed interrupt error from the ProDOS interrupt
handler.  I can't think why Z-Link would be getting that, unless
you've configured it for the wrong slot.  Check the settings under the
Apple-W menu (I think).
