    USB Driver tio use ISW tool for C6500

    I have a failed system board (OACB) on a C6500. This board comes with no firmware installed so you cannot flash the machine using a USB drive so I have to use the ISW TRNS tool to download the firmware to the board.

    Normally you would plug the laptop into the printer port on the R/H rear side of a good working machine machine using a printer cable and the C6500 USB driver to use the ISW tool would then download and install on the laptop. This worked fine on my old laptop running windiows XP. I now have a new laptop running windows 7, when plugging in the printer cable an unspecified device is now available in device manager but no USB driver is installed. I tried downloading the USB driver from a working machine in preperation of changing the board on the defective machine so at the moment I cannot use theISW tool to flash my new OACB. The customer is now getting a little jumpy as their machine is down.

    Try as I may I cannot get the KM C6500 USB driver to install on my laptop. I can only assume the one that is downloaded off the machine is not compatable with windows 7.

    Anyone any ideas on how I can get this to work?

    Thanks

          So the USB driver from the machine downloaded and installed on your PC/Laptop without any problems?

          Unfortunately I have Win7 64 bit edition...

            If you are able to log into Konica's ssd webpage then search for this problem. There is 12-15 page guide on how to set win 7 up to do this. I have set it up and the steps are a pain to do.
            You have to also restart in "unsigned drivers mode" to get it to work.
            And Star Trek was just a tv show...yeah right!
