I did contact Magellan customer support, but since my good old Meridian is now a "legacy device", they had no Win 7 drivers and didn't expect to make any.

Some people have gotten them to work while others give up after days of trying to get them to work. If you look through the forums you will see horror stories about those serial to USB converters.
