Windows 10: Driver problem

Guys

I have 2 GPS receivers - a Tomtom GPS MKII (wireless) and a Haicom -204III-USB working fine on Windows 7.

Neither work on Windows 10. I think , but can't be sure that the Tomtom wireless worked in Windows 8.1.

It's early days for W10 so I'm not sure if this is a Microsoft issue or a GPS device driver issue.

But it is extremely frustrating to spend 3-4 days trouble shooting with no solution - other forums are of no help whatsoever.

Unable to access a web site after update windows 10

Hi.

Yesterday a web site i have used for years was blocked/unable to connect.

Using mobile broadband from EE at work for a laptop. Site available using home broadband and if phone using the mobile broadband.

Only thing that had changed on my laptop was a update the previous day.

Restored to pre update,all ok.

Its only a car auction site ,nothing dodgy.

Why?????

Thanks Andy

 

Win10 BAD_POOL_HEADER crash

Turns out the Dlink USB wifi adapter is what causing the bad pool header BSODs. Strange as I've been using it for the past year under Windows 10 without prior issues. Now when it's unplugged the computer runs fine with no BSODs, plugged in and it BSOD several
times.

As it has no win10 drivers, I may have to buy a new wifi adapter.

 

Well as youv'e still got W7, according to your specs, copy the drivers from 7 to a usb.
Then plug in your device, which should then appear in device manager, as Unknown, right click to properties, update drivers using the LET ME select option and install them in Compatability mode.

I can now confirm that the W7 and W10 driver file names are the same.

With the Prolific USD to serial device if I look in events information I see "required further installation"

If I try to open the Tomtom port I get "failed to open port"

 

I've now got the Tomtom Device working after uninstalling/re-installiong the Bluetooth device and re-pairing
