Bad advice.. prolific devices are terrible when data overruns happen and not just for ham, but for gamers and labs too.
This is another klugde to make these crappy drivers work under windows 10. Get an FTDI or SILabs chipset.. much more stable -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of hb9brj Sent: Friday, March 18, 2016 2:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Prolific driver windows 10 Together with my K3 I ordered a KUSB back in 2008 (?) but never used it. Today I opened the package. The instruction sheet is Revision A, dated October 8, 2007. The enclosed mini-CD was unreadable, so I plugged the KUSB into my Windows 10 PC and wondered what would happen. A driver was found but the entry in Device Manager showed the famous yellow triangle plus an error messge "The device cannot start (Code 10)". After reading this and other threads in the Elecraft reflector I didn't want to give up, but quickly found this solution: http://leftbraintinkering.blogspot.ch/2013/05/usb-to-serial-prolific-2303-de vice.html Works great! No need to throw away your old Prolific PL2303 device! 73, Markus HB9BRJ -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Prolific-driver-windows-10-tp7605939p76 15294.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
