Windows 10 and USB Gadget

Hi!

Is there a compatability issue with Windows 10 and the USB Gadget?

Have just purchased Nomad with the gadget and installed on a laptop purchased solely to run Nomad, but cannot get any DMX output.

Windows is saying there is no available driver for the AVAB CONGO I/O Interface.

Have tried updating all ETC software using the UpdaterAtor downloaded from ETCs website but no success.

Any suggestions??

  • I have it running on Windows 10 with Eos v2.3.2 Nomad. I don't recall having to do anything special to get it to work.

    AFAIK, UpdaterAtor doesn't update Gadget or Nomad.

    Is there any chance you've got the wrong Nomad installer?

  • Thanks. Have downloaded the right installer. Installed Nomad before plugging in the dongle, as specified in the set-up guide. When I go into Device settings for the PC it says that drivers are unavailable for the gadget. Have tried a clean install and a different laptop (also running windows 10 though) but the same problem. Installed on my macbook and it works good as gold.
    Thoroughly confused!

  • I am having the same problem on a new windows 8.1 computer. I have installed and uninstalled Nomad PC many times. I even went back to build 44 from the beta. The gadgets(I have 2) do not show up in the I/O tab of the shell, they don't show up in the About System screen in Nomad, and in Tab 99 , when I plug them in, they give me an error 50 and they are never identified as being a gadget. My gadgets work fine on Mac and have worked fine on an older windows 8.1 laptop. I have full administrative privs and I see the same thing that Natalie is seeing in the device settings. Computer is Asus All-in-one 19.5" Touchscreen. Intel Core i5 2.2ghz 64 bit, 8gb ram
  • Hi Natalie ,

    could you install our UpdaterAtor Software on your Laptop. It can be found on our Website here.

    After that is installed, then go to your device Manager in Windows, and manually install the driver

    for the Gadget - and then you can find the needed Driver here:
