Are you trying both cards in the PEB at the same time? The TI can use two RS232 cards, but one has to be set for RS232/3 and RS232/4. That might make for a conflict and explain the lockup.
Or perhaps both are set that to 3/4 and you are trying to open RS232/1 or RS232/2. I don't think that would lock the TI up, should just give an Open Error.
If these came from the same system originally, might be something happened to it that took them both out of action. Feel for chips that are running unusually warm. You may be able to compare them with the working card with a digital multimeter.
