One more item that may be of interest to the masses. For years I used my K3 and a Vista laptop with West Mountain USB converters. This setup worked perfectly. A laptop failure required me to upgrade. Due to the purchase of the new Win 8 laptop I needed to replace my USB RS232 adapters. I bought the WM cables for Win 8. Both of these cables failed while i was operating. They replaced them and then they failed again. I would guess they are extremely sensitive to RF. I should mention that these are used while operating portable.

Not sure it is the search itself, but the differences in the security levels
for drivers and other things being installed on the machine.  Win 8 seems to
want to only accept signed drivers and win 7 doesn't seem to care.
