Your old USB to Serial adaptor should run under the Windows emulation, mine did, and the change in the BIOS is easy to do if your computer supports it. -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Canopus56 Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2011 4:07 PM To: Utah Astronomy List Serv Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Kurt's Windoze 7 Dilemma Yep, Looks like my old Belkin F5U409 USB-to-Serial adapter ain't going to be supported under Windows 7 64bit by Belkin. Same story - they aren't updating the drivers. But Belkin is selling their new F5U257 USB-to-Serial adapter - which is advertised as Win7 64bit compatible. Well - off to more online computer shopping. Rats. Can you spell "planned obsolescence" and "toxic landfill"? - Kurt _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php Visit the Wiki: http://www.utahastronomy.com
