Further to Matthew Seaman's response, if you are doing this over
a serial terminal, you might check the speed/bits/stop/parity of the
serial connections (9600, 8N1), and the serial cable itself.  I've 
seen this when the cable was nulled/not nulled when it should not/
should have been, or the baud rate was enough off and one side
wasn't auto-sensing the speed correctly.

HTH,
