Not been on the scene for a while. Ive just updated GIMX from 0.50 to 1.12. Now when i load the serial program it just closes.

The tx pin of your avr usb board is probably not properly connected to the rx pin of your usb to serial adapter.
This is required since
GIMX 1.10.

This connection wasn't used before GIMX 1.10 (no data was transfered from the adapter to the PC).

My CP2102 from ebay was labelled incorrectly, it's possible yours might be as well.
