Forgive me if I've misunderstood your implication, but Windows 7 does not force a particular driver e.g. Prolific.

You can plug in the device and use Windows Update to find the correct driver or you can go direct to the FTDi site and download and install the driver. When you plug in the device, Windows should recognise it and link it to the driver.

Why go to Radio Shack for a cable. Surely it's better to give Elecraft the business by ordering one direct from them?

I've had the same issue. Window 7 uses prolific drivers. Window 10 can, but it a big mess. Go to radio shack and buy their ftdi USB cable. Window 10 has the drivers , no need to update. Call me 209. 601.5354
