I bought an BELKIN usb serial port for my HP laptop. The problem is
every time, I try to download from the laptop to the chip. I get
message " Basic detected but not responding, check your power supply"
I NEED HELP ! Does anyone knows how to fix it or know what is going on ?

Please let me know

    Hi;

    I bought a BELKIN usb serial port and could not get it to work with the
    Stamp, I returned it and bought a
    KEYSPAN USA-19QW high speed serial adapter and have had no problems since.
    Others have tried USB to serial
    adapters with mixed results, you may need to try several different brands and
    models to find one that will work
    for you. I have used the KEYSPAN on two different desktop computers and one
    laptop so far with no problems. I
    also have a generic serial adapter that works on one of the desktops. Hope this
    helps it took me about a week to
    find the KEYSPAN after I bought the generic adapter, make sure you can return it
    before you buy though. Some
    companies have a store credit only policy or no refund policy, I try not to buy
    from these places.

    Have Fun !!

    hi, I have the same USB to serial interface and works fine, but you must setup
    the basic stamp editor v 1.32 comm ports.
