They still work (to the extent I've learned to utilize them at this point) on 2 different Linux machines. The HackRF has the 2017.02.1 firmware on it, which I upped it to sometime early this year. > These WERE working Windows. I don't know exactly when or what happened, but at some point *both* devices - at the same time - just quit being recognized by software. GnuRadio/GRC, Sdr.Comv2/v3, HDSdr, all of it. Neither the HRF-O nor the Nano2+, in any USB port, in any application, work. > > At some point, hackrf_info went from saying no HackRF was present to throwing a dialog "The procedure entry point libusb_strerror could not be loicated in the dynamic link library libusb-1.0.dll." > (I believe that is part of the driver from Zadig, no?) Nothing shows up in the Windows Event Viewer logs when this happens, so I'm buggered for where to look next. I actually was at that point approximately the moment I discovered that the devices weren't being recognized by the software, but I do TRY to clean up my own messes, Read That Fine (if often incomprehensible) Manual, recheck my work, try to remember what mistakes I might have made, cross-check with other hardware and software, "Ask Dr. Google" etc, but I think I've got those bases well-covered five times over and I'm at wit's (and patience's) end I I just want the friggin' thing to work so I can get back to my radio hobby.

Hi Chris, This certainly sounds like a USB driver issue on the Windows 7 system as it's affecting multiple pieces of hardware and both work on Linux. Going through the things that you've already tried: - have you removed and reinstalled the Zadig driver? - was there a recent Windows update that could have caused this? - is it just those two USB devices? Thanks, Dominic
