+1 on that suggestion.

I think I had a Belkin before but it would only work with a 32 bit OS.

When I went to 64; they said I needed to purchase the 64 bit version.

Very true.  I've had good results with Aten's 
http://www.aten.com/products/productItem.php?model_no=UC232A on 32 and 64bit 
OS's.

I have found not all Serial <--> USB adapters are created equal. My car's ECU 
(engine computer) is programmable but only via serial port, and my laptop only 
has USB ports and I had to be particular about which adapter I used else I'd 
get "no comm".

This is the one I picked up:

Anyone have a recommendation for a 12-14" laptop with a serial port? We have 
some field staff who require serial connections for monitoring equipment, and 
the USB/serial adapters don't always work.
