Symptom: Buffer Over Flow
Solution: How to disable your 'FIFO-buffer' when using the PC's standard com-port's

Depending what version of Windows you are using.

Windows NT 4

Goto 'Control panel', if 'ports' is available execute the link.
Choose the port in question
Press 'Settings'
Press 'Advanced'
Uncheck 'Fifo enable'

Windows 95-98 (all versions)

Go to 'Control Panel', execute 'System'
Find the port under 'Serial ports'
Press 'Properties'
Press 'Advanced'
Uncheck 'Fifo enable'

Reboot your PC after these changes. If this does not help, your cable might be too long, or it is placed next to a power cable, giving a lot of noise.
