+mpilchfamily Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 It all depends on what chip the serial to USB converter on the cable uses. Your PC should have a default driver that will work with it. Since it seems it doesn't then you need to try to find some more info on the cable. Then you'll be able to find the drivers.

+mpilchfamily Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 One replay with the image is enough. Unless someone has that same one and knows what it is the picture doesn't help much. Is there any info on the USB plug about what chip the converter uses? Quote Link to comment
+eusty Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 It looks like one I have (and the CD) and it's based on the PL-2303 chipset, the drivers are here. Quote Link to comment
