Most serial adapters cannot provide enough current to power a ESP; use a multimeter to make sure you are really getting 3.3v when the device is powered on. And the CH_PD line must be HIGH for the device to boot.

Okay, so if I connect TX->TX and RX->RX and I connect VCC and CH_PD -> VCC than the blue LED blinks everytime I send a character. still no response though.
