If MMEdit is having trouble finding the com port, it points to USB adapter issue.
Even a brief loss of the adapter causes Windows to sulk.

What adapter are you using and how are you powering your 'mite.
Some USB adapters don't have very good 3.3V available and that can cause grief if you are trying to run any sort of load from it.

The other common problem is the capacitor on pins 19/20

I assume by 'break signal' you are referring to control-C
