serial to usb convertor
Hi
my datalogit unit was working with the serial port on my old win98 computer, Now I've got an XP system with only usb, I got a serial to usb convertor from the local computer store and it does'nt seem to work with the datalogit unit, I know the convertor works cause I can use it on other devices, I'm just wondering what brand and model of convertor is compatible with the datalogit and win XP, thanks in advance

As an update for anyone else, the new brand name carried by Best Buy, Dynex, works.
It's model number DX-UBDB9 - USB PDA/Serial Adapter. The included driver works perfectly so far with Win XP SP2. I start the car and FC-Edit before turning on the car.
