I'm presuming you mean a MAX233?, this is just a level shifter IC, so it doesn't really have anything to do with serial communications, apart from converting between 0/5V and +12/-12V for RS232.

I would suspect your problem lies elsewhere, this could easily be confirmed by simple voltage or scope checks around the MAX233.
