I'm wondering if anyone might know a solution to this.
I bought a USB microscope from eBay that wasn't supposed to work with Windows 10 but it did. It's supposed to be for XP, Vista and 7 (32bit and 64bit). It's a generic Chinese plug and play device that isn't supposed to require a driver to work. It comes with a driver CD in case it didn't work automatically.
It worked fine until Windows 10 force updated. Now when I plug it in, the LED lights come on the microscope but amcap states 'no video capture device was found'.
Device Manager can see USB2.0 PC Camera in Image Devices with a yellow exclamation mark. Properties/ General states, Manufacturer: AVEO
'This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)
Driver is not intended for this platform. To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.'
I've tried Update Driver Software / Search Automatically, but I get 'Driver not intended for this platform'. Then it comes up in Device Manager in Other Devices as Unknown Device.
I've tried Uninstall and then Scan for Hardware Changes. It just pops back to Image Devices as USB2.0 PC Camera with the yellow exclamation mark.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver on the CD. I right clicked the driver and chose Compatibility Mode Windows 7. I tried Compatibility Mode XP (Service pack 3) and the driver installed for 15 minutes (instead of a few minutes) and asked me to reboot as usual but that didn't work either. Instead Device Manager is showing '(Code 18) reinstall driver'. The driver is an InstallScript Setup Launcher so it can't be found.
Device Manager / Properties/ Events keeps showing,

Ecm tools free download. I've tried every USB port.
I think I've successfully selected 'Disable driver signature enforcement'.
I've tried it on a Windows XP PC and it worked fine. Full movie of karate kid.
As it worked on Windows 10 before, I'm wondering if there is something I could try to get it working again. I know nothing about drivers and would like some advice please.
It's this exact model and packaging. It states on the front USB 2.0 & 1.1 and there's a Java icon. There's no model number.

This model was discontinued in July 2015 in favor of our new, redesigned microscope. Please go have a look at plugable.com/usb2-micro-250x
The Plugable USB2-Micro-200X USB microscope provides up to 50X magnification optically and up to 200x and can be used on computers running Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux simply by plugging it into a spare USB 2.0 port and it requires no external power. It operates like a standard webcam and can be used with the default webcam software included in your computer’s operating system.
Since our microscope uses a standard webcam chipset, it will automatically install default webcam drivers when plugged in to a computer. It can be used with any webcam app, like the camera app built in to Windows 8.1, Photo Booth in OSX, or a third party program like VLC media player.
We also have custom Windows and OSX software designed specifically to work with the microscope. The download for this can be found below:
Windows: https://s3.amazonaws.com/plugable/bin/Digital_Viewer_3.1.07.exe
Mac OSX: https://s3.amazonaws.com/plugable/bin/Digital_Viewer_3.1.07.dmg
Raspberry Pi running Raspbian:
***NOTE: Working with the current version of Raspian Jessie***
We have tested our Microscope with Linux using GTK+ UVC Viewer by using the following terminal commands:
“sudo apt-get install guvcview”
“guvcview”
Q: How do I zoom in on an object?
A: The level of magnification is controlled by the silver focus wheel, then the microscope or the object must be moved to the appropriate distance in order to be in focus.
Q: I can’t get my microscope to zoom past ~30x indicated magnification, how do i get to 200x?
A: At the closest distance with the clear shield touching the object, there are two possible magnifications. The first is at around 30x indicated, but if you continue to rotate the focus wheel, the image will get blurry, then sharp again at around 200x indicated!
Q: How do I dim the LED lights?
A: The LED lights can be dimmed or turned off by rotating the black LED light control wheel near the rear of the microscope. If you are having problems with glare, try viewing your intended object at an angle.
Q: I see a “device not detected” message in MicroCapture when it’s clearly connected. What gives?
A: You may have to disconnect and reconnect the microscope when restarting MicroCapture, and it can take up to 30 seconds for MicroCapture to detect the microscope. It’s also possible that the microscope isn’t running under it’s specialized driver that MicroCapture requires in order to see the microscope. If none of this helps, please contact us at support@plugable.com and we can help troubleshoot the issue.
