I love it. Mine works perfectly on my XP Home desktop, XP Pro laptop, and my friend's Vista Pro laptop. If you are having problems, just click on the setup file and select your OS. It has tons of features, some of which I will never really use...

If you have Windows Vista look for a different adapter! Customer support answers phone calls however are unable to assist you beyond telling you to double click on ''setup'' to install drivers that are not signed and fail to work correctly. Adapter drops the connection every few seconds for mouse/keyboard making it useless for this devices. I have not been able to test on windows xp so buy at your own risk!
