Putty Serial Connection problems

Hi forums,

I was wondering if any of you have faced this problem that I have been having for quite some time now regarding serial connection with putty to my Solaris Box Sunfire v250 and Sun v220 and sun v440.

The serial connection freezes on my Windows 7 64 and 32 Bit machines.
I unplug and plug it back in and try to reconnect the connection only to get an error message "Unable to open connection"
The only remedy was to force restart my Windows 7 machine.
Is there any processes or services I can force it to shut down rather than force rebooting my Windows machine every time this happens?

I also notice in my device manager when the Serial connection freezes the "COM4 serial to Bridge" device is no where to be seen.

I am using putty version .62
Serial: COM4
Speed: 9600
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Parity: None
Flow control: XON/XOFF

Thank you very much Smilie
