Your OOboard has a REAL RS232 level shifter. That should work with
EVERY USB cable. The OOPic R board has a bogus level shifter that
doesn't work with all USB cables.
So, there is a good chance your cable works. See message #36883 for
several diagnostic suggestions. Ignore the bit about non-compliant
RS-232 levels, you don't have that problem.
Try ALL of the suggestions in message 36883 and post back with your
results. I suspect everything will work out fine - if the board works...
You have a pair of pads marked ESTOP. You need to short those pads
(and hold the short) while hitting reset to make the OOPic pay
attention to the IDE if it is executing an errant program. You don't
have the option of removing the EEPROM.
The schematic is here:

Do the LEDs light when you press the buttons? They should be dim but
visible.
