    Driver installs but device shows Other Device and can't finish install


    Problem: I'm able to install the driver and Device manager recognizes the device, but the final install step of connecting the device to the computer won't complete. What happens: I install the driver without the device attached (as instructed). The driver installs and prompts to plug in the device to complete the install. When I do, Device Manager recognizes the device, but not as an Audio/Sound device but as other. What I've tried: Roland does have compatible drivers with Windows 10 Pro installed under compatibility mode. I've tried 2 drivers and both of them install, and I know this because I'm prompted to uninstall them when I cancel. And the device always comes up in Device Manager when I plug it in. I've installed this device (Edirol UA-1000 by Roland) on multiple Windows 10 Pro computers without issue and it has always come up under Audio/Sound, so I'm not sure why it comes up under "Other Devices" and I wasn't sure whether I can actually moved a device to the correct Device Manager group and whether that would make a difference. Windows 10 Pro (Build 19042)

    :)

    Modem on HD Audio device not installed....

    I just bought a Toshiba Equiem P200D 139 lappy which came with Vista. Having spent a couple of days with it its obvious that Vista is a bit too much for it (or maybe it was the pre-installed bloat...), so I've installed XP Pro on it. So far so good, its much more responsive now, and I've found most of the drivers for it (a bit of a chore since Toshiba don't list any XP drivers!!).

    Device Manager only shows one remaining triangle, beside Modem on HD Audio device, and I just can't find a driver for it! Tried right clicking and update driver, which worked for a few devices, but this one obstinately refuses to work. Any ideas?*Bang Head :banghead:

  3. Device Manager Un-Hiding Hidden Devices

    When you connect a plug and play device, Windows Plug and Play manager detects it, finds and installs the driver. Device Manager lists the device with a solid icon.

    The driver is only removed when you uninstall the device, not simply by disconnecting the device. When the device is disconnected, its driver is still installed. By default, Device Manager only displays connected devices. When you show hidden devices, note the Bluetooth icon you see is semi-transparent (not opaque). That indicates a "non-present" device. Sometimes also called a "ghost" device. The driver is still installed but the device is not currently detected (i.e. not connected).

    Device can be disconnected when
    • Device unplugged (e.g. removing a USB device)
    • Turning a device OFF
    • Disabling the device in BIOS (then windows won't detect it) or
    • Device failure

    So
    • Check BIOS as suggested
    • Check board connections
    • Can b/t be turned off by a switch? or keyboard combination?
    Also possible the b/t h/w failed
