actually it does work i don't know how, i had a hpr4000 laptop and it worked fine, used it while i worked on the river. i bought a new hp dv9000 laptop and now it doesn't work.

i do have access to my old laptop that has been reformatted since then but have not tried it.

the usb adapter didnt' work on my dell desktop either and don't know why.

damn computers

here is a link to the old laptop in which usb adapter worked
