try and find the correct drivers for the cable (which can be problematic) but most issues I've seen are poor cables or driver related

You need VCDS to run on Windows 7.

If you find out how to get it to work on 7, post it up here! I tried all the drivers I could find and many other routes but all to no avail so reverted to using XP on a laptop I have purely for anything old enough to need certain ports (ie megasquirt). Getting it to work on that was a bind enough using various drivers to get it to talk to anything.
