Nikkai Usb Serial Driver

I've read through this thread with interest and have subsequently registered on the site to try and get some advice. I have a generic USB to RS232 cable which I purchased on fleabay. When plugged into my laptop windows 7 automatically updated the required drivers for it and it works fine. However, I also need it to work with a desktop PC which is running XP home and I have spent three hours trying to install drivers without any success. I have downloaded pretty much every driver mentioned on this thread without any luck and really don't know what to do next. When I try to install the drivers manually the wizard can't find suitable drivers in any of the files downloaded. I have seen some people mention.rar files but how do I get XP to recognise these as driver files?

Installation of the PL2303 and CH340 / CH341 / HL340 drivers is easy. Download the driver for your OS X version from the download dashboard. For windows usb serial adapter cables using prolific chip also mac and linux drivers for usb serail cables as well as x86 64-bit drivers for prolific chip serial.

Any advice is greatly received.

Several years ago I purchased a set of 'USB to IDE or SATA adapter cables' made by StarTech.com. I used them several time on my old Windows XP computer but I never tried them on my Windows 7 computer until now. They still work fine when I connect an internal IDE hard drive using these cable through my USB port but when I attempted to connect an SATA internal hard drive I got an error telling me that Windows 7 could not find a driver. I went to StarTech.com web site looking for a driver for Windows 7 but when you go to their download section there is no driver to download.

I tried contacting them by email well over a week ago and got no response even though when i completed there form to send the email it said I would get a reply within 48 hours. Does anyone know where I can get a driver for this set of cables that will make it work on Windows 7. Blindscanner 2 15 keygen serial. I know that I can just open my computer and connect it internally but the reason I purchased these cables in the first place is so I will not have to do that. The driver cd that came with these cables does not have a driver that will work for Windows 7.

LarrySr, found this from some feedback another user / owner of this device left. [quote]'Here's how to install it so it will work for you: Have the drive turned on and running when you plug it into your (running) computer's USB. If you get a 'Found New Hardware' message, you're good. If not, click Start, and right click on My Computer, go to Device Manager, right click on Disk Drives and click Scan For Hardware Changes. After the scan, see if the drive shows up.

If it doesn't, just reboot and it should show up. After the drive has been detected once, it will behave like a flash drive. Just always remember to use the 'Safely Remove Hardware' feature when you unplug the USB, and always be sure the drive is running when you plug in the USB.'

[/quote] it might be worth the shot and might do the trick for you. I stopped scouring the feedback when i found that but feel free to check some more incase someone else has another suggestion. See here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N0155.
