Windows 7 unable to Find the Hid
« on: November 21, 2012, 01:52:34 pm »
I have an issue with a PIC based HID device that I have in the field. I am using VB.NET / Framework 4.0.

The device shows up in Win 7 as working properly. When the program launches it is unable to Find the HID in the FindtheHId() method call which works on my developement (win 7) laptop as well as other win 7 machines. Just wondering if I am missing something code wise. I have it set to an x86 build (release). I have been scanning the forums for an answer, just thought I would post here.


Thanks....

Does the program detect the HID but not use it because it doesn't have the expected VID or PID or because it appears as a system mouse or keyboard? Use single stepping to see what HIDs the program detects.
