My K3S with Elecraft USB cable going the radio to computer worked great on
my old Windows 7 64-bit computer. Now I'm trying to use the same radio
and same USB cable with another Windows 7 64-bit computer and cannot get it
to work as I'm having problems getting the driver installed. Some related
thoughts:
1) This Windows 7 64-bit computer cannot auotmatically find a Driver for
the USB cable. I'm, quite sure my old W.7 computer installed the driver
automatically without me downloading it manually.
2) Since the new computer cannot find the driver automatically, from the
Elecraft website, I downloaded the Driver file: "CDM v2.12.24 WHQL
Certified" and then unzipped it to the Documents folder. (there are 8 files within
that folder)
Using Device Manager, I try to install the new Driver, but regardless
where I place the zipped or unzipped "CDM v2.12.24 WHQL Certified" driver file,
Device Manager reports that it "cannot find the driver".
Please advise what I'm doing wrong? Such as, it there on particular file
I need to select manually? Or perhaps this CDM v2.12.24 driver file needs
to be placed in a particular folder?
Thanks & 73,
Dick- K9OM
