Windows 7 Belkin Serial adapter F5U103 driver for VMSPC

Recently loaded VMSPC to new laptop with Windows 7; Old XP driver for the Belkin Serial Adapter is not compatible with Windows 7.  VMSPC tech had me try Prolific driver but no luck with that.  Anyone have a solution to avoid my having to purchase a new adapter?

Don't know your Belkin part number but found this: "Is the F5U409 USB PDA Adapter compatible with vista 64 bit? No, this product is not compatible with vista 64 bit. It is compatible with Vista 32 bit computers. We do however have a similar adapter which is compatible with Vista 64 bit, you can use part F5U257 (USB-to-Serial Adapter)."

Found F5U257 for around $18 on the Internet.

There are Windows 7 64-bit serial to usb adapters for about $15 from

Maybe this will help?

Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
