A heads up to anyone having problems getting their computer to talk to your Dynon.
I recently bought a new "netbook", and was trying to upgrade to v5.2 firmware. I downloaded both the Dynon support program and the drivers for the Dynon supplied Prolific USB to serial cable. This cable had worked for me in the past on a different laptop. This time it didn't. Lots of trouble shooting, achieved nothing. So over to Radio Shack to try another cable. Bingo! New cable did the trick. A Gigaware 26-949, 40 bucks.
This was also the fix for Scott Hersha's new netbook also.
In the past, I had problems on a D10, with USB to Serial cables that were hit or miss.
Hope this might help someone.
