Port

Colibrick uses the USB port of your PC and thus is directly powered from it. The unit can be connected or disconnected anytime without the necessity to switch the computer off. The input connector is compatible with the internal INT7/9 boards and U-PAD/2 devices. I was able to load the legacy drivers following the above instructions. So you guys are super helpful. I think my audio interface is not making the leap to windows 10 however. The legacy drivers worked with it under windows 7 but the Focusrite Saffire is not completing the driver install even with the legacy 1394 drivers.

Devices

This article helps to fix an issue in which Windows 10 doesn't install specific drivers for USB audio devices on the first connection.

Drivers dataapex port devices replicator

Original product version: Windows 10, version 1703
Original KB number: 4021854

Symptom

When you connect a USB audio device to a Windows 10 Version 1703-based computer the first time, the operating system detects the device but loads the standard USB audio 2.0 driver (usbaudio2.sys) instead of the specific device driver.

Cause

This issue occurs because the USB audio 2.0 driver (usbaudio2.sys) isn't classified as a generic driver in Windows 10 Version 1703. Therefore, the system assumes that a compatible, nongeneric driver is installed for the device even though the driver is generic.

This issue also causes Windows 10 Version 1703 to postpone the search for other compatible drivers through Windows Update that typically occurs immediately after you install a new device.

Drivers

Resolution

To fix this issue, use one of the following methods.

Method 1

To resolve this issue, install update 4022716.

Method 2

If the device-specific driver is distributed through Windows Update, you can manually update the driver by using Device Manager. For more information about how to do this, see update drivers in Windows 10.

Method 3

If the device is not yet connected, first install the device-specific driver, such as by using the appropriate installer. After the device-specific driver is installed, Windows 10 will select that driver instead of the standard USB audio 2.0 driver when you first connect the device.

Note

See the device manufacturer's user guide for specific instructions about how to install the driver.

Method 4

If the driver isn't distributed through Windows Update, you can manually reinstall the driver. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Install the device-specific driver (see Method 2).
  2. Open Device Manager.
  3. Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device, and then select Uninstall.
  4. Restart the computer.

When it restarts, Windows will try to reinstall the device by using the device-specific driver.

Hardware - Install a Printer as a Local Port Device
Applies to: Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista and XP

How do I install a printer as a Local Port device?
Solution:
Use the instructions below to install the printer using a Local Port on the given operating system.
NOTE: These instructions assume the following:
  • The printer is already shared from the computer that is hosting it. See How to Share a Printer- FAQ 38545 for more information.
  • That you have downloaded the proper drivers for the printer model you are installing.
  • That you are able to access the shared resources on that computer without being prompted for login credentials. If you cannot access the hosting PC without providing credentials, correct that issue before proceeding.
  • You have ensured the printer is shared and security is set to Everyone with Full Control.
If these steps have not been performed, please do so before attempting installation of a Local Port device. Failure to do so will result in failure errors when trying to create the port.
