it says plug and play on these devices, they don't and you need a driver, so if your device came without a driver disc use this
it works 100%.
[1] open and run the driver file with the device unplugged
[2] it might ask you to uninstall old drivers [say yes]
[3] re-start your pc after installed.
[4] connect your usb to serial device.
[5] check in the device manager settings
[ prolific usb to serial com port.-com [1].

EDIT:
ALSO HERE IS THE VISTA DRIVER ORIGINALLY POSTED BY A FRIEND

and now the usb to serial driver for windows vista
