KUSB support under Vista?

KB1PXD
Greetings,
I just purchased a new computer (with Vista) as my old computer finally
died.  Is there driver support for the KUSB cable and if so, where can
I download them?  I noticed that the Prolific web site mentioned something
about not supporting Vista.  

Thanks,
- Bill

I'd guess it's built into Vista now?

Any Prolific Vista driver will work.  Vista may have one ready to install
when it senses the KUSB.

There are 4 manufacturers mentioned on the Prolific website.  Elecraft could
post a driver on its website as a vendor of a Prolific-based adapter, but
has chosen not to do so.

Never mind.  It appears the Microsoft drivers are adequate.  I've loaded
the drivers and I'm in the process of updating the K3 firmware.

Please see the "USB to Serial Adapter Troubleshooting" topic in K3
Utility Help.
