you need a serial to usb converter. I got mine at best buy but any good computer or office supply store should have what you need. Good Luck

I had trouble with a converter on my Power Commander..

It was just a cheap and bad piece of equipment.. try buying a different brand. I know this answer sucks, buts its about all i can tell you.

When you plug it in does a window pop up on your computer screen indicating a new device has been found ? If not check your port settings .
