Most all will work fine, just make sure it ships with a driver disk in event your system and OS need it.

For the cost of an adaptor (actually less) you can get the USB cable from RS and just not use the old cable. If you need the converter for other things, good luck with your hunt. I bought a converter two weeks before the USB cable came out, had it working 50% of the time. As soon as I could, I returned it and bought the cable from RS.

I got an adapter at my local Best Buy and it works great all the time. Adkad
