It is possible to use this with standard Windows 7 drivers? I am in a corporate environment and our IT department has locked down out ability to install any drivers, so any add-on devices have to be able to use standard Windows drivers.

a driver has to be downloaded or installed from the dvd that comes with it in w-7 as soon as you plug it in it wants to look and install hope this helps ps it works great

everything should work with windows OS. drivers should be automatically downloaded with it. I have windows 7 so I cannot confirm this.

The default driver in w8 will work just as in w7 but Microsoft suggests still downloading the specific driver but as of right now there is no such driver yet. In short yes.

You may have to load the device driver from the disk that is included, although I did not have to with the two windows 7 computers I used it on. Both of those computers were connected to the internet and could just download the driver from the internet without using the disk.

You have to install a driver, but the process couldn't be simpler. Works great on Windows 7.

Yes, actually i use it with windows 7 64bits , buuuuut, you have to download the drivers from the web , windows doesn't recognize it automatically.

Good question! When I upgraded the computers for our office last month and was unable to install because there is no driver for Windows 8.

Gerry: I've got it installed on WINDOWS 7...but never use it. I'm using it on my WINDOWS XP (another computer) and it works just fine. I've had problems installing on "7"....and if that's the only thing you have.....good luck. I was just patient and kept at it after "7" was telling me to forgot it. But I did get a correct install.

Not good. The PC has about 4 drivers missing that are only valid for W8+. I tried it and tried to get drivers, but did not find anywhere. Yes, I hate W8.

This works great in win 7, either as discrete or teamed ports. I don't recall if drivers are native in Win 7, but in any case, easy to locate from intel site and install.

I ordered mine to work with Windows XP, which it does beautifully. I see no reason why it wouldn't work with Windows 7 without any installed drivers. If you do have an issue after receiving it, this site might help: http://www.official-drivers.com/installer/?seed=Iomega&gclid;=CODtmpCv1L4CFe07Ogodc3wAOA

win7 will generally find the drivers intuitively. However, after research, i have found that while a practical idea, some applications, like PonyProg for instance, will not work with this. The serial connection has to be straight to the mobo, not extended with a USB

Have not seen a Windows 8 Driver for this yet but it works "plug 'n play" for Windows 7 without using the driver disk. If you have already made your purchase & tried unsucessfully to install it, try this: Physically remove the device and then open up device manager & "uninstall" it. Reboot your computer and then plug the adapter back in. When the "hardware found" driver install dialogue pops up, be sure to allow it to "search online" To see if it will find a driver. I can't say if this will work with any certainty because I don't have Windows 8 and haven't tried it.

I have been using it with windows 8 preview and it works no different than windows 7. it uses native windows 8 drivers, noting to install.

I'm sure it depends on your operating system, but on Windows 7, the operating system either already had the drivers or downloaded them without any work from me.

Hi. Does this prodeuct work with Windows 7 running on 64-bit? Would I have to download additional drivers? thanks.

Unfortunately not, I bet you could troll around google and find some drivers but it doesn't come with any and Windows is clueless. As always, the cheapest solutions turns out to be the worst one :)
