I purchased a uniden bcd996xt scanner and the serial cable that comes with it is/was useless for today computers because all modern computers have usb instead. The proper cable was being sold for 30$ at amazon which is way to much money. I read a review about how someone got an adaptor instead of the whole cable. I figured I would experiment with Walmart since they have a fantastic return policy . I ordered this adaptor for a 1/3 of what the other cable cost. Got free site to store shipping and when I attached it to my computer it immediately searched and installed the proper drivers. So it was plug and play for me. Saved me time and $. I have a five year old HP desktop computer quad core with 16 gigabytes of ram and running Vista.
Converter cable came with a "mini" CD disk (first time I've seen one) but installed on my CD player without a hitch and works perfectly. Definitely would recommend.
good
arrived at store earlier than promised, plugged in and functioned as expected
Works on my new computer running windows 7.
VERY GOOD SERVICE
This was just what I needed at a very good price.
I bought this product to program microcontrollers. This usb to serial adapter comes with a mini driver installation disk. The drivers on the disk are not compatible with Windows Vista/7. Luckily, I discovered that a driver is availible for 64 and 32 bit versions of Windows Vista/7 online. To install the driver, go to http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31 and click on PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v110.zip. I gave this item 4 stars because it works perfectly, but it was a pain to find the driver. I hope this helps.
Had a little trouble with the device initially. Would not install properly. Windows 7 64 bit. Loaded flawlessly on XP. About to return the item after following all review information that was listed here. Saw the website on the packaging and went to that website. They had all the proper drivers that you will need. Reloaded drivers and works great! Website is: www.sabrent.com. They had the proper drivers for Windows 7 64 bit.
Works great with my Windows 7 netbook but couldn't get Windows Vista 32 bit PC to install driver. Down load new driver from website and still wouldn't install. Netbook interface is great.
