I got 2 questions

i bouhgt the NexXTech Usb To Serial adapter and it came with a disk and how to install it, so do I install the the Usb to serail adapter? or do I just load the latest bin? ohh ya and one more thing do I use boot mode or standby mode when I am using the adapter?

Is the 168 bin better than the 164 bin? because I am thinking i Should stay with the 164 bin because it is ok and it is working perfectly with no mistakes so should I wait till the 164 bin is down or do i load the 168 bin?

I can only help you with one question... new 168 bin fixes bev even channels. The channels do take about 30 seconds to load up but after that they come in great. CW coders are the best!!!!! Sorry can't help you on your other question.

if you bought a usb adapter the cd that came with it , you load that in your computer so it can recognize the new hardware , what this does is install the drivers for that cable.
i have always used a null cable never tried an adapter. you should upgrade to the 700s in the future. then you can load it via a memory stick. thats awesome.
now for your bin keep using the one that you have if its working well for you.

Actually when you install the your USB adapter driver in your pc so it can recognize your hardware everytime when you connect it to pc and install any software
