REW not recognising USB Midi cable


Hi.
I have an FBQ2496 and am trying to use REW to update it over the midi connection.
I have a no brand USB/Midi cable which installed using the windows XP drivers (Dated 2001?).

If I look in device manager (Sound, Video, Game Section) the cable is listed and shows as working.
If I look at the midi section of the driver the Enable box is ticked.

When I go to the comms settings in REW the cable is not listed. Have tried unplugging, restarting REW etc but nothing works.
Have tried on a desktop and laptop both running XP.

Is it maybe possible that the cable is incompatible?

Also not sure if the midi connector needs to be connected to the BFD before REW registers the cable? Although I did try this it didn't make any difference.

Am programming manually at the moment but would be nice to get this working
Cheers
Gary
