Did anyone have problems using this with XP sp3? My notebook no longer recognizes it's Dell Conexant 56K modem and I'm hoping this will work until I buy my next notebook in a few months. Hopefully it will also work in a Win 7 notebook as they never have RJ-11 anymore. Did anyone have problems using this with XP sp3?

Windows 7 is fine, tested and proven. I don't think XP will be a problem since it runs in 7.

further research reveals V.23 is the standard that your looking to use. And the answer is Yes. V.23 is supported on this modem.As for modem hang; I've rarely had that occur with mine, and I use it for communicating with PBX systems. Hope this answers your question.for more information see:http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-29.html#ss29.6http://support.usr.com/download/datasheets/modem/5637/5637-ds.pdfRob

Hello Mr. Tissier, you said that you didn't have any problems with Windows 7 as long as I get an A-B Y cable with 2 USB plugs. I order one from Cables to Go and plan to use it with my Dell Inspiron Netbook. Should I be okay with that? I would appreciate your response. Thank you.

Yes, it will work with XP. I run XP with Service Pack 3 and all updates, and I have no problems.

Google the manufacturer and model name for drivers. And do the same for forums. That's what I did. You can find different driver packages but I believe as far as my last search went nearly a year ago, the maufacturer's latest drivers at that time were beginning to solve lingering user issues. Most reported good success though not necessarily the bandwidth specified, though still rewarding. Time has passed so a search should yield even newer drivers. I have not had a chance to actually install mine, but I look forward to it.. I think anyway.. by what I did read about driver developments.

I've had issues in the past with Plugable brand as well. I've used this product for a few months now, and while there have been a few times after a windows 8 crash, when the screen wasn't seen by the OS, XP is much more stable than the newer versions of windows. I'd say yep, even with SP3 on the media center.

Have used it with Windows XP no problem (since upgraded to Windows 7). Agree with Jaysen Huff.. do a clean install of your XP disks - remember, these hubs have been around since BEFORE Windows XP.

Hey, I'm running windows XP Pro w/ service pack 3 - had no issues installing this adaptoor right from the driver disk. Not a hiccup or anything, which suprised me given the price being so reasonable. I don't think I've had it a full year yet but if you're having troubles I'd say, If you havnt done so already, take any hard line internet source from the PC so it's completely uninfluenced, remove any software that might have partially installed (control panel - add/remove hardware), remove the power cable from it while it's sitting at the desktop idle but still on (hard rest), wait a few minutes, reattach power line, start, if ask start XP normally, and do a fresh install of the adaptor. If that doesn't work I'd try to download the other service packs from another computer to a flash drive and move them / install to the troubled unit. Actually inserting that updating after the hard rest but before the new attempt at installing the card would make the best sequence of steps. I hope this helps.

I have MULTI-SWITCH-RADIO Panels All were working perfectly under windos7 but since I switched to Windows 8.1 none of them work correctly. Saitek will have to issue new drivers for Windows 8.1. Hoping it will not take too long!!!

I'm running windows 7 with no issues on this laptop except I have yet to find the wired ethernet driver. Touch screen etc all works fine once I found the various drivers.

I am using Windows 7. In the software box it said it works with windows XP (sp3).

I have win xp, sp3, worked great, driver loaded with success, no problems except with everyone using secure connections, I could not connect for internet, maybe in a big city where leftover signal is available, it would be great. I can see all my neighbors on line but like I said, everything is password protected so I could not connect for wifi.

It should be fine as long as you use the manufacturer drivers. the edition of Windows XP you're using doesn't really matter beyond the fact that you have service pack 3 which is the best you can have. Not sure what adapter you used before, but it would be strange indeed if it cared about so minor a detail as the edition of windows xp you're using.

I could not get the my telecom software to recognize the voice capability supposedly built into modem. Same issue in both XP Pro and Win7 Pro 64bit. It may have been a software issue, but I returned it anyway. Instead I bought a serial to USB interface cable. It required a driver (free from manufacturer) but once installed worked perfectly with two legacy serial port modems, recognizing all the built-in features.

Googling this revealed some people do have workarounds to get it working. You might also be able to get a VM of XP (Windows XP mode) and sync that way. Either way, it sounds fairly like a complicated involved way to get a (sadly) obsolete piece of technology working.

When I upgraded my laptop (Dell D600) I bought Windows 7 Pro... (because some of my drivers must have the compatibility mode for my hardware to run.) I disabled my internal wi-fi in the bios. Had to hunt down the latest drivers one by one... but it runs fine, never crashed yet, network card works fine. I'll get 6 more years out of my 2006 laptop and it's very handy on the kitchen table!

It seems to work just fine with my brand new laptop that definitely does not run Windows XP. But it is a tiny chore to figure out how to set it up, but it's done great with mine so far. And I believe I run windows 8.
