In 'SOftware Devices' in Device Manager I see 2 MIDI ports 0, associated with Megadrum also. In this software, on my WIndows 10 machine it showed a 'USB Audio Device' and a 'USB Composite Device' is setup and connected. Also used an awesome peice of software called 'usbdeview' which shows you everything going on with a USB device. I tried two other laptops today, two Windows 7 Machines with the same, if not worse results. My machine does have that ksthink.sys file in the System 32/Drivers directory but for some reason it's not being called upon to be used by Megadrum when installing drivers. The issue can be avoided altogether if reformatting - which is a last resort for you, but even so, not difficult for anybody to do in Windows 10 now, just takes a days work. The only drivers you need from the OEM nowadays is the software to enable things like function keys, battery utilities and possibly touch-pad drivers to unlock more gestures, that's it.Įverything (and anything else you find in the programs list to do with drivers or utilities) can be uninstalled, then run windows update and let it work. I have worked on plenty of 'dead laptops' and with a fresh install of Win10, they simply do not need the user interference that you needed with Windows 7. Starting with Windows 10 there has been a massive improvement to automation with drivers. This is not the way Microsoft works any more. I wouldn't bother trying to hunt down 'driver.sys', or start migrating drivers manually. If you reboot the laptop, plug in the USB cable with Megadrum on and Windows can't find the drivers, I would suggest there is a conflict with an existing driver package by the OEM.
