Im going nuts here. I have spent most of the day trying to install the drivers for my midikeyboard. And i've spent most of the other hours of the day searching for a solution.
I can install the drivers but when i connect my midikeyboard windows says that it can install the drivers. Thus it doesnt work.
I installed it in windows xp mode (tried all the service packs) and nothing works. I bought this keyboard a loooong time ago, but it worked great on windows xp.
Any ideas? |

Are you using drivers from the disk or from the M-audio website?
Make sure you go to device manager and uninstall the item (while connected), then disconnect, install the new drivers and then connect the unit. |

Connect the device, then got to device manager and you should see an "unknown deivce" under sound,video and game controllers (it could also be listed under usb devices). Right click on that and select unistall. When done, physically remove the usb cables, do a restart, then when booted back up, install the new drivers and connect the device again.
One peice of advice that has helped me when install instructions have failed is to ignore them: if the instructions say "install the software then connect your device etc." I've found in some cases it works to connect the device (before you run any driver installers) and when the new hardware wizard pops up, point it to " install drivers from a specific location" then "have disk" and select the installer program.
This has worked for me a couple of times when the installer has not worked.
@energy, once you have the new driver, do the above (remove all trace of device, unconnect, restart, then fresh install) and once you've got the driver sitting right and the device recognised, try follwoing the instructions I posted earlier aout the use of different templates (hui vs logic automap - template 38 vs 39).
Could you both please post back here to say how you got on? |

Is this another one of things you just "forget about" with windows? ;)
So it seems these will not be supported in vista 64. |
