I used a 1000 EX with the 25-1031 plus style RS-232 card for about a year
without any problems.  From what you describe, it sounds like your software
is ignoring parity errors.

The UART on the card is a standard Intel (or other) 8250, nothing exotic
about it, and there's a pretty good description of how to program it in
the manual.  If you lost the manual, you can probably locate an Intel
peripheral manual quite easily.

Hope this in some way helps.
