I had this problem once with a third party cable I bought from eBay.
Often they're not what they claim to be and the proper drivers won't work with them.
Is yours an original cable or a cheap third-party one?
If its the latter you may be out of luck...

Ah, well many third-party USB data cables are based on the Prolific chipset.
Have a look on the following site to see if there's any suitable drivers.

You may need to have a look in the USB properties (not exactly sure where it is or what is called in Windows - I use a Mac) to see what Windows identifies the cable as...

On that site go to:
Download > USB 1.1 Full-Speed Cable Controllers > PL-2303 USB to Serial Bridge Controller > Drivers for Windows (pop-up) > And try that driver
That's the one for most generic USB data cables as most are based on the Prolific PL-2303 chipset.
I've been told the Mac drivers work ok, but as I don't have Windows I've no idea about the Windows ones.

go to the device manager in windows. scroll down to Universal serial bus controllers, and see if theres a yellow triangle with a !. if you can press update drivers and try updating from the internet
