The CAC readers below 'might' work with Windows XP but NOTWindows 8, 8.1, 7, Vista, or Mac. This is partly because they will not read the PIV II CACs (GEMALTO TOP DL GX4 144, GEMALTO DLGX4-A 144, G&D FIPS 201 SCE 3.2, and Oberthur ID One 128 v5.5 Dual) and they [the manufacturers] haven't invested in any firmware updates.
The simplest solution is for you is to invest in a more modern CAC reader above this section
Mac friendly althoughThe manufacturer does not show any support for this reader on Macs
ActivCard V2 Smart Card reader driver
NOTMac friendly(2 different Navy personnel have tweaked the firmware update for an SCR-331 and found an old XP computer to update the firmware from). They have never sent me a 'How - To.' I recommend you find a different reader on this page that is compatible with your OS.
The Schlumberger CAC reader below is here only for driver support. I do not recommend you purchase this CAC reader unless you are not planning on using a computer newer than Windows XP. This means it won't work on Vista Windows 7, or 8 as it is an old reader with NO support from the vendor.

According to the Identive's website driver download page, it will not work on anything newer than XP
NOTMac friendly
SCR-111 Serial CAC reader
According to the Identive's driver download page, it will not work on anything newer than XP
Also, due to the fact that most computers do not have serial ports or use PS2 keyboards anymore, this reader is useless for modern computers. The manufacturer has not provided any updates to be able to use with the PIV II CACs or use with Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 8.1.
