Default TOAF usb driver and OS version. Issues??

Hi all,

Installed Toaf on my latest win 10 laptop today in an attempt to check over my cowley car which has come home since winter storage. I get an error on the driver installation for the usb serial driver when using the driver downloaded from the TOAF website. Anyone experienced this? Can`t remember I had an issue with this on my last computer, but that one ran on windows 8.1. Same modified cable and same usb serial driver used back then.

Is this driver not compatible with win 10? Should it be better with win 8.1 or XP?

All advice greatly appreciated

I just plug the cable to the USB socket on the PC, and let Windows find and install a driver.

I've used these drivers for Toaf http://www.totalcardiagnostics.com/s...ble-on-windows

Works on XP & Win10, worth trying perhaps

Regards

Fired up my old XP laptop. TOAF worked superb on this one. No need to installation of extra software.

Default Toaf and Windows 10

To get Toaf to work with Windows 10. I had to download a driver from the internet. Unfortunately I cannot remember where I found the link for the driver but it is possible to run Toaf on a Windows 10 laptop.
