GUID Bodnar card

[Navajo]

Hi Pete,

This question is not really FSUIPC related, but maybe you have an answer or suggestion.

I use 5 Leo Bodnar cards (BU0386X)

Windows assigns a GUID to the cards, but i't not a unique GUID for each card.

When using different combinations of my 5 cards, all the FSUIPC/LINDA asignments are messed up because the GUID of the cards gets mixed up.

I have tried the "autoassign letter" facility in FSUIPC.INI but to no avail.

Do you know how i can get windows to fix a GUID to a specific card (HID device)??????

Having all devices plugged in, could be a solution.

the downside is an increased load on the pc and having all hardware at my desk at the same time.

Hope you enjoyed your holiday.

Kind regards

But it MUST be unique for each device! Often it is the ONLY unique thing! There's no other way to distinguish identical devices.

I don't know how to STOP it doing so! Sorry.

Oh, you mean you only plug one in at a time? That explains it. They are all identical so Windows assumes it's always the same device! There's no way that is ever going to work and Leo can advise how to make the USB identity different for each one.

Well the load on the PC is negligible. But you need a bigger desk (for Bodnar boards? They're so tiny! <G>). Maybe longer USB cables and keep them underneath or in a drawer?
