Clif,
Check http://www.miklor.com/UV5R 
and follow the link to Common Error Messages at the bottom. 
The problem appears to be the cable or drivers.
Correct drivers for win7 can be found at the Miklor Drivers Page. You need Prolific 3.2.0.0

Hello,
 
I am trying to load 18 Baofeng Radios and I am having a very hard time. 
 
Currently, I have tried both the Live disk and the program on the pc hard drive.  I am getting the message that the “radio is not responding”.
 
Also, the drop down options under the “Radio” tab, the option to write to the radio is grayed out...so even if I could connect to the radio, it does not allow me to write.
 
Running Windows 7 home edition.
 
Any other information you may need please let me know....
