Before plugging in a programming
cable.....
ALL
Chinese programming cables have fake chips in them and require older
drivers to make them work correctly. This is especially true if you use
VISTA, WIN7, WIN8 or WIN10

Drivers & Information
The simple installation of USB cable
drivers changed with operating systems after Win-XP. Vista,
Win7, Win8 and Win10 all try to install a driver of their choice
instead of one that actually works with
Chinese-made cables. This is because Prolific, the maker of the chip
that the Chinese copied,
released a driver that will not work with the Chinese cables. Of
course, since Windows is smarter
than us humans, it will automatically install the newest (non-working)
driver it can find. Windows
update will also replace an older, working driver, with one of these
new non-working ones. For
your Chinese USB cable to work with Vista, Win7, Win8 or Win10, you
must force the operating system
to install one of the older drivers. The files and
links below will show you how this is done.
Windows
10 Upgrade:
If you recently upgraded to Win10, and are using
a Chinese programming cable, your PC will automatically update your
Prolific driver. You will need to reload Prolific driver 3.2.0.0 back
to your PC.
