Lost and Not Functioning Drivers
|
Just got a new QMX.? Thanks to all for making this happen.? Worked perfectly out of the box.
Yesterday I was decoding FT-8 and JS8Call on several bands.? Nice sensitive receiver.? But, I was unable to send since I didn't have a serial port for the CAT commands.? I'm running Windows 7 Pro, 32bit, so I got the driver file from STMicroelectronics as noted in the docs.? Followed the instructions as best I could, but no joy.
Not only did a USB serial port NOT get installed, but the QMX device on the USB port also disappeared.? So now dead in the water.? Darn it.? I can understand the serial port not showing up but the QMX device not being recognized when it was before is a puzzler.
Uninstalled the STM software but no change.
As I mentioned, Win7 Pro, on an HP Probook laptop with 4 core processor at 2.56GHz and GB of RAM.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?? I am very experienced with Win7, 35+ years of computer administration experience at HP.? I have other laptops to connect the QMX to, but this laptop is the one I was going to use for portable operations.
