CI-1 and USB woes
William Brillinger:
...as a work around in the mean time, If you have a "Pro" version of windows on the desktop, you can use remote desktop to log into the pc from the laptop and control it from there. At least then you'll be mobile.

Kevin,
Can you please right click and select properties on the CI-1 in the USB Devices view utility and post a screenshot of the screen that comes up? I noticed that the description is showing as "USB Input device" on your Laptop and not "USB Human Interface device". This may just be how Windows 10 reports it (I don't have 10 to check) but I'd like to see the rest of the details reported for the CI-1. Can you confirm that your desktop shows exactly the same info for the CI-1 in USB view as your laptop does?

If you can, download a fresh copy of HC Sim. Then uninstall the old HC Sim. When done shut the computer off and let it sit for a minute or two. This ensures that there is nothing left in memory. A reboot leaves everything in memory. Then try to reinstall HC Sim.
Windows is notorious for screwing up program installs and drivers.

Tim - Here's the page you requested:
It appears the same on the desktop computer. I didn't see any differences. One thing I noticed that was odd (on both of them) was that if the CI-1 was plugged in prior to turning on the USBDeview it wouldn't show up in the list. However it still worked on the desktop like normal. When I unplugged and reconnected it on both computers it then showed up in USBDeview's list.
Dean - I'll give that a go right now and see what happens. I may have tried this in the past but I honestly can't recall. I've been dabbling with this on and off since I recieved the CI-1.

Dean, that didn't work either. Uninstalled both, shut everything off for a while, and installed the CI-1 first then the HC Sim with a fresh download. No dice.
