Title: Oscar Vortex?
Post by: jonnyv100 on June 07, 2007, 09:05:01 pm

Hi,

I purchased an Oscar spinner a few years ago and the USB cable busted.  Anyone know where I can get a replacement?

Depends on how the cable busted.  If I remember correctly the USB interface was a mouse hack that attached to the spinner.   If just the cable is broken away resolder the cable.   If the end of the cable is broken (usb connector) then just get a usb cable and cut and attach the new end to the existing cable.  If someone has stepped on the mouse board then you will need a new mouse hack to attach your spinner or maybe an optipac from ultimarc which provides you with a new interface.

It's probably a standard cable. Bring it nito a computer shop and they'll find you a match.
