I’ve heard mixed thoughts, some people say it will even work with windows 95 and up. I’ve got my girl’s old laptop sitting here doing nothing, I’ve cleaned it out and it runs great. I was thinking of putting it to some good use. and why buy a $100 laptop if this one can run the program? ---

You also have to wire it correctly, the grounds must be from the same source but not the same connection or you will get interference. Mine works great and is wired to both Logworks and DSMLink. ---

What does it say? are you sure the com port the usb converter is connected to is the same the program is trying to use to communicate? did you install the terminal connector on the line? ---
