I have had zero problems with Vista 64-bit and the Uniden USB-1 cable. I am using an Intel DP35DP motherboard. You may want to verify that you're using the proper chipset/USB drivers for your motherboard (and they are the most recent versions available). Also, check to see if the release history of your BIOS mentions anything about USB/Vista/64-bit issues and see if a newer version is available.
Ideally, you should also test a different USB -> serial adapter (belkin, iogear or the like), with a different serial device connected to see if that works.
If there were to all fail in a similar way, it's something beneath that level such as a BIOS setting/problem, windows issue or actual hardware issue.
In any case, I've been successfully using Vista 64-bit with the Uniden USB-1 cable since installation. In fact, I run 4 of them simultanesouly without issue.
Upon reading your initial post again, I'm willing to bet it's the chipset/USB drivers that are having the issue with the 64-bit OS, not the USB-1 (prolific) driver. Have you successfully used any other USB devices with the 64-bit version of the OS?
Hope that helps,
Matt
