Colibrick A/D Converter

5 Troubleshooting

Reason:

The driver is probably

installed incorrectly

.

Solution:

Reinstall the driver manually as described in the chapter

"Installation and re-

installation of the Colibrick driver"

on pg

29

.

▌Status 3: The item does appear, but is displayed with a cross symbol.

Reason:

The driver is disabled.

Solution:

Double-click the item to invoke the

General

tab and activate the driver by clicking on

the

Enable this device

button.

▌Status 4: The item does appear and there are no error symbols around it.

Reason:

A driver for a different type of Windows operating system was possibly installed

thereby replacing the correct driver.

Solution:

Uninstall the incorrect driver and install the correct one as described in the chapter

"Installation and re-installation of the Colibrick driver"
