Hi

I need assistance in installing a USB to USB Bridge cable

Description:
Windows detected a new device attached to your computer, but could not
find the driver software it needs to make the device usable. Each device
manufacturer typically includes driver software of a CD that comes with the
device, or as a download from its website. The hardware ID of your device is
USB\VID_067B&PID_0000&REV_0000.

Compatibility issue between PL-2301 USB to USB Bridge Controller (EOL) and
Windows

This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between this version of
Windows and PL-2301 USB to USB Bridge Controller (EOL), which was created by
Prolific Technology Inc..



I checked the Prolific website.
They do not have a driver for Windows Vista

Now what else can I do?
 
If there is no Driver written for Vista, nothing can be done.
A Driver is software program written by the Hardware Manufactuter that
allows their product to "talk" with the operating System, and vica versa.

Ask Prolific for a refund
 
Thanks!

I am not in a position to ask for a refund

1. Do we have a generic drivers which I can try?
2. I am OK if the bridge cable works in VMware/MS Virtual PC! Has anyone
tried a stunt like this?

Thanks
