ADT issue

["Nathan Jedinak" <njedinak@columbus.rr.com>]

I am hoping someone can help me with a confounding problem.  I have just
started getting back into Apple II's, and I am trying to connect a IIc to my
PC to transfer disk images (both ways, down and up).  Here's what I have:
Both a Win98 and a Win2K Server box
5 different IIc's in varying states of tune ;-)
An Apple IIc to Imagewriter I cable (din5 to din25)
A female Din25 to Female Din9 serial adapter from Radio Shack

I connect it all up (to either Windows box), type IN#2 on the IIc, and go to
a DOS prompt and type the following:
mode comX: baud=300 data=8 parity=n
type adtgs.dmp >comX:

Where comX is replaced by Com1 (the serials port on my windows boxes).

 I get a "Write fault error writing device com1" on the 98 box and a "System
cannot write data" error on the 2K box.

Any ideas?  This is driving me nuts.  I purchased a brand-new IIc to
Imagewriter I cable off of ebay, thinking it was my old cable, to no avail.

The IIc is a memory-expansion-enabled IIc, if that makes any difference
(although I have tried it on all the IIc's, same results).

Help!
