Windows 8.1 Update and the USB Logger

Post by ngerber999 »

I hope this helps others. I updated my computer to Windows 8.1 today and the logger stopped working. It turns out that when the update ran it undid all of the USB to Serial adapter settings I had changed. You may have to reapply them if you made any changes from the default COM Port 3 8000 baud settings for the driver. After doing this I'm up and running with no further hiccups.

Yet another reason for me to stay away from Windows 8.
