If you aren't getting anywhere with the midi interface you have, I know of
another one you could get from Yamaha.  It's the Yamaha UX16, 
http://usa.yamaha.com/products/music-production/accessories/usb-midi/ux16/
and there is a driver on line you have to install before you can use the
cable with your keyboard.  The driver can be found here:
http://download.yamaha.com/usb_midi/
Note, however, that it is a good idea to have the midi interface plugged
into your computer while installing the driver.  Once the driver is
installed, just plug it into your keyboard and into your computer, turn off
local, go into QWS, and choose the port Yamaha UX16 1, or whatever your
computer will call it.  
I hope this helps.
God bless,
Seth.

Yes, that's what I got but don't know the brand because it is only written
on it "USB MIDI". AND made in china. please just give me the procedure to
try my luck, or else prescribe a perfect brand which is compatible with the
psr170 for me to go and get one for myself. thanks, cheers!
