I'm using a USB to serial converter that works great on Win 98 and XP.  I'm not exactly sure of who makes it, but if you are still looking I can research it a little.  It has ACC MT609-2 stamped on it.  
It works great with the RT-TUNER and the romulator.  I'm not sure how it would work with DataMaster.

I purchased a new IBM T41 laptop. This machine does not come with DB9-RS232 ports.

In order to run TunerCat-RT with the Romulator, I need a RS-232 conector.

Also I use DataMaster to connect to the ALDL connector, again with an RS-232 DB9 connector.

 

 

I have tried the Belkin F5U103 USB to Serial DB9 converter. I works sometimes, but causes continual BLUE-SCREENS-OF-DEATH under Windows XP.

I also have tried the new StarTech PCMCIA 2-port serial card. This card would work with some old legacy serial devices, but not the Romulator.

Has anyone got a suggestion for this problem? How about the QUATECH DSP-100?
