This could be a configuration problem on the part of the adaptor, or
it could be bit rot.  Is this really a 1542 (i.e. not 1542C or 1542D)?
If so, you should probably replace it.  I've had significant problems
with a 1542A, including data corruption.  There seems to be a bug in
the driver, but nobody cares enough to fix it.
