I am using vista 64 on my laptop computer.
Can anyone suggest where I might get a usb-serial cable with drivers for
vista 64
Any Ideas welcome

i've not used this one but it claims vista64 compatibility.

http://www.usbgear.com/USBG-232MINI.html

it's based on the ftdi chip.

a quick browse of the ftdi driver page:
http://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm

shows that they support vista64 so it's plausible.

I'm using Vista x64.  I have two adapters that use the Proliant chip.  
Vista recognized both of them and installed the drivers without my
having to provide anything.  One of the adapters worked but the other
was very flaky.

Hi Norm,

I run Vista64 Business Edition here and I have never been able to get
updated Prolific drivers that work with my system (Lenovo T61 laptop). They
do everything from BSD's to applications just hanging. I did purchase a
single adapter cable with an FTDI chipset and it works FB. I also have a USB
hub with an FTDI chipset and it works FB also. I believe I got them both
from USBGear.com.

It may very well be my system, but I have never had any luck with the
Prolific chipsets. I know others have. YMMV.
