Hi everyone.
OK Brief history. I have been running HW (Advanced) for over 8 years on Windows 7 - 64bit Pro. Never had any problem, everything installing perfectly first time. The PC is not connected to the internet and due to location this is not possible. Therefore there have been no updates except those that were applied on the initial installation of the operating system when the PC was built and based on the old saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" I have never thought about it.
Now for the problem. I have been using the good old M-Audio Delta 1010LT audio interface but now wanted, at reasonable cost, an interface with 16 analogue outputs. I came across the Cymatic LP-16... ooooh! looks nice at less than £300...ooooh! nicer!, so I went ahead and purchased it.
Following the instructions from Cymatic I downloaded the device and driver package and a Microsoft Hotfix update (KB 3123479) supposedly to enable earlier versions of Windows 7 to recognise signed driver certificates or something like that. I regret I am not very computer literate. The Microsoft update installed OK but when I proceeded to install the driver package a message still came up saying Windows does not recognise the certificate. I clicked on install driver anyway and followed instructions to connect and turn on the device. Windows immediately said "can't do it mate, drivers not installed".
I have tried several times including disabling the M-Audio Delta drivers but to no avail. The Cymatic installation wizard says installation successful but Windows does not agree!
Any ideas please?
