Is this Compatible with Windows 7? Some of these adapters are not compatible with that OS and they will not function... Is this adapter that way?

Yes it's compatable. I have used it with my current rig that runs win 7 and Mac OS X Lion and Mountain Lion.

It worked (for a while) for me with Windows 8. I assume it would work with Win7. At bottom mine was a Seagate Barracuda 2000GB SATA device configured by Buffalo to connect through USB3.

I'm using it with Windows 7 and an ICOM-7000, so I can't vouch for it working with Windows 7. Sorry 'bout that. John Hale

It should be fine as long as you use the manufacturer drivers. the edition of Windows XP you're using doesn't really matter beyond the fact that you have service pack 3 which is the best you can have. Not sure what adapter you used before, but it would be strange indeed if it cared about so minor a detail as the edition of windows xp you're using.

I'm using it with Windows Vista so I'm not sure. It's supposed to be universal (works with Mac OS) so I would think if it works with my old OS that it should work Windows 7.

Typically I've found that this adapter needs HP drivers installed to function stably and properly. I've installed many of these up through windows 7 64bit. I would check HP's website for drivers and compatibility with windows 8.

Yes, it does work with Windows 7. I bought 2 of them and they work great! I was a little concerned because they were so inexpensive, but no problem...

I couldn't get it to work on Windows 7, or find a driver that would get it to work on that OS. I'm not sure if they fixed it, or if there is an available driver for Windows 8.

Not sure. It barely worked with Windows 7. I suspect it barely works with anything for that matter.

Actually, no. I have two of these...one on a Win7 box and one on a Vista box and both work fine with the stock windows drivers.

I don't know about Windows 7, but unlike other writers here, I sure cannot get it to work on Win8 (8.1, in my case). I first downloaded the latest drivers, ran the setup program, and inserted the USB stick when directed to. The light came on the stick, but the software said it could not find the adapter. Since some here said they used the CD successfully with device manager, I tried that. The product is listed in device manager under "Other Devices" as USB2.0 WLAN. I did the Update Driver thing, pointed towards the CD, and got the error message "Windows could not find software for your device". I am going to return it. I would not recommend that anyone using Windows 8 buy this device. I don't know about 7.

I've used it with XP & Windows 8 so I'm pretty certain it will work with Windows 7. It's USB so it should work with any operating system as long as you have a USB port
