USB to serial (win 7 64 bit)

[qawsed]

Hello,

i recently bought a new laptop and also installed windows 7 64 bit. I also bought an adapter USB to serial (RS232 - HL340) but windows doesn't install the drivers that came with it (it says: installation failed!). It worked just fine at my friends computer, who has windows 7 32 bit.
So i think that all i need are drivers for 64 bit. But, i tried really hard but i just couldn't find them.
Can somebody please help me with that?

cheers, mitja

Welcome to seven forums. It could help to know the manufacturer of the adapter. Hve you checked thier site? You could also go to device manager right click on the device>properties>detials tab>drop down menu> hardwareid(first one) Copy and Paste the string and maybe someone can find a 64 bit driver for the device. Thanks. Fabe

Yes, i have checked the manufacturer site, but found nothing useful. I also contacted somebody in that company who said (translated): "I don't know what the problem could be. You can still return the adapter and you'll get your money back."
But i'm not interested in returning the adapter, I really need to make this work.

I hope that this is what you ordered me to copy: USB\VID_1A86&PID_7523&REV_0252&MI_00

Could you please provide more information such as the manufacture of the hardware and what the hardware is (I'm assuming its a USB to Parallel based on this thread but I could be wrong ).

Hello guys, I have the same problem with this adaptor....

I saved this problem with installing virtual windows xp... I couldn't find another solution.

Maybe this will help you.

Hey guys, same problem here. The device is a usb to serial cable. Mine came off ebay with an installation disc with HL USB Driver on the label. Folders on the disc are: HL0108 (with an exe named HugePine in it), PL2303 (with exes for xp & vista) [The license agreement indicates that the manufacturer is Prolific Technologies but there's no clear indication what the drivers are for] Installation of the Vista driver doesn't enable to device. The other folders are R340 which contains an exe for HL-340 and the last folder is USB-SIM9.0.

I've tried installing drivers from all three folders to no avail, I'm assuming that the drivers (or perhaps even the cable) does not support 64bit.

Thoughts? Advice?

You can try to decode the USB Device Instance identifier with this utility: USB_Device_ID_lookup - Utility Mill - Utility. Instructions are at the bottom of the page.

I have the Prolific 2303 USB-to-Serial cable, and successfully installed and run on my Win7 Home Premium 64bit SP1 system, using driver in file PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v130.exe. I assume I got this from the Prolific web site.

There are two or three different chips used in usb to serial cable conversions. You need to know what you have to get the correct driver. The FTDI chip is reportedly the best.
