Still can't 896HD to work.

Post by pdlstl »

I'm at my wits end.

At this point I feel like my only option is to sell both the 828mkII and the 896HD and find a product from another manufacturer which will install in my DAW with minimal problems.

My 828mkII worked flawlessly for about 8 months then when I installed the 896HD, neither will now work.

In Device Manager the 896HD shows up with an exclamation mark. When i click on Properties, it says:

This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)

But when I click on Driver Details, it says:

Provider: Mark of the Unicorn

File Version: 3.6.7.0

Copyright: Copywrite(c)2001-2006

Digital Signer: Not digitally signed


Also, it indicates the driver files are located in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\MotuFWA.sys I verified this file is at this location.

I have uninstalled/installed drivers, hardware...everything I can think of, countless times!

Any ideas? :? :? :?
