Re: BAFO USB to 9 Pin Adapter

What are you plugging the USB adapter into? Is it a desktop or a laptop, and if a desktop, a front USB or rear USB port?

The only way a USB device will show up as an Unknown Device is if the device is defective, or one of the USB connectors on the computer is bad (either a bad contact, or if part of a bracket or front USB some of the pin headers may not be connected properly). Try the adapter on another USB port (preferably rear connector attached to the motherboard), or another computer and see if it works- if it does, you have a bad USB connection. If it does not, you have a bad adapter.
