And how do I get it to recognize it? I downloaded the drivers of the download section but none of them seem to work.

It came with the usb to serial cable and a 12 volt power supply. No it didn't come with the mini disc. Is there any way to use it with out the mini disc?

I bought my predator used. It did not come with the installation CD.

I downloaded the DSinstaller. I'm having a problem finding a driver for it. I installed all 3 drivers that the DS website has but It still won't read the predator. What am I doing wrong? I'm running window's 2000.
