<html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14pt">This to would have been my next question but as usual Jim<br>beats me to the punch. If it doesn't work with the OEM<br>software I'd lean towards a bad cable. I can also send<br>you a small program that will test the cable for looping <br>back capabilities. If it fails I'd say the cable is a dud because<br>the cable doesn't have to be plugged in to test. This should<br>work in XP or Win 7. Let me know if you want it and I'll email<br>that to you. Also did you try the Mac yet? <br><div><span><br></span></div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> kdufour .
