Need driver for device in device mgr.

[calentz]

I have been unable to find the correct driver for "PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller"

The computer was shipped with Win7 Pro, it is now Win10 Pro (Latest) with ALL updates.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi:

That device is installed by either the chipset installation utility or the thermal dynamic platform driver.

So try them both...

First the chipset.  Install and restart the PC.

If that doesn't install the device, try this thermal platform driver...

The chipset driver update came back with unknown error. (Was ran as admin)

The other came back with there was later driver already installed (Also ran as admin) I did not proceed.

Interesting...

OK, so at least I know it is the chipset driver that needs to install that device.

Try manually installing the chipset driver as follows...

Go to the device manager.  Click in the PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller needing the driver.

Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update driver.

Select the 'Browse my computer for drivers' option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.

That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp81894.

Make sure the Include subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.

If not, try the older chipset driver from your notebook's support page.

If that one doesn't work either, then try this one...

Actually it was the sp6025 even though there was later software installed.

Thank you much
