There were many counterfeit chips so the patent holders put code in their drivers to disable the counterfeits. The USB version (1, 2 or 3) does not matter. You want to get a genuine converter. Best way to guarantee that is to buy your converter cable from a reputable source. Elecraft sells one. So does MFJ. I am sure there are others. Just don't get some cheap knock-off from the Internet.

I want to connect my Windows 10 tablet to my K2.  I have the KIO2 module
installed and I have built the K2 serial cable.  I have read the relevant
material on the Elecraft website about avoiding the Prolific chipset.  The
USB port on my tablet is 3.0.  My question is this - can I use any version
of USB (1.1, 2.0, 3.0) to serial adapter to connect the tablet to the K2
cable or is one better than the others?

Thanks,
Mike
