Yes, I've had exactly these problems.  The problem is not that NT4 doesn't
support DOS as such - it has its 32-bit shell which emulates DOS.  I think
you'll find it's the way Windows in general (right back from 3.11 and even
possibly before) handles the serial ports in DOS mode.

Either bring down the baud rate on your serial port or, preferably, put a
dual boot on your system and have a partition dedicated to DOS for Yaroze
development.

Take care,

JT
