Ehh! Don't be sorry. We figured that much already any way ;[
I'm reading the specs on the GS3355 AKA GC3355 chip.
Found the port speed is spec'd to run at a "typical baud rate is 115200"
Range is from 9600bps up to 6.25Mbps! Woah! Cool!
So if your PC's UARTs are set at the default 9600 baud, they're running to frikkin slow! Clogging up the pipe between your miner UARTS and your PC's UARTS. I don't own a controller yet but I bet the UARTs are set at atleast 115200 baud which is why they work so much better than USB to PC...that is unless your running XP which hates Virtual Ports, evidently. Win7 works great! No comm port issues!
Low baud or too high a baud rate will cause all sorts of weird problems, glitches, messed up comm with pools etc.
Also, in LTC mode, they can be clocked up to 700MHz. Change at your own risk!

I'm running mine at 675MHz (seems to be the sweet spot for my miners as of now) .. no stale shares building up at litecoinpool.org yet...good sign! Was high as crap earlier due to low baud rate and overclocking I think, but overclocking with low baud rate was probably the cause.
I'm moving up to 700MHz slowly as I observe pool results.
So,for you folks having strange problems, try the above.
Again, do so at your own risk!
I know nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnothing! NNnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnothing! Cheesy

I DEFINITELY want to figure out how to shut down the BTC cores completely.
I'm sure there is a switch like '-btc' or something to make it run LTC cores only.

Let me know what changes, better, worse, no change etc.

I've seen some set the cclock higher than 700MHz and get positive results. I'm waiting for a miner than can report hashrate/stales before I really start pushing it, but mine is set at 750MHz for now with positive results.
