SparkFun Serial BackPack

I’ve just purchased a SparkFun serial backpack.

When I connect it up the splash screen comes up of course. But not for 500ms, it stays there for longer!

Also when I program something and upload into Arduino, nothing shows!

The wiring is correct, I’m sure.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Anybody? :frowning:

I seriously need help with this!
