I got so frustrated with the old serial to USB with Win 7, I went and bought a $200 XP netbook about a year ago for all my car apps. Just wondering is your Win7 32 bit, or 64 bit?

The install directory destination should be: C:\Program Files\Silabs\MCU\CP210x

If I open either of the .inf files in that directory it has the version as DriverVer=02/22/2007,4.40.1.0

Do you see the same? I'm XP and it lands a bunch of files named slab****.sys in C:\Window\System32\Drivers.
Yes, I see the Silabs folder in Program files. It looks like the preinstaller adds these files, so I guess it is doing what it is suppose to. So problem must be with Windows 7 64 bit Pro not wanting to install the drivers from that folder into my Windows\System32\Drivers folder.

Do you which files exactly were put into that folder for you? Easiest way to check would be to sort by date, and find one of the file names that you know and see all files from that date.
