Need help getting GC2 to work on new computer

[jtraskal12]

Hey guys, ive ran into a small problem with my GC2 and am looking for some assistance. I purchased a used GC2 about 2 years ago from someone who bought an old golfsmith unit. The unit came with an older Dell PC that had the FR1 software already installed on the computer. When I purchased the unit I had intentions of swapping the software over to a modern computer but the setup was working fine so i never bothered, however i did make a copy of the FR1 software and installed it on my new computer. Flash forward to this spring - after getting my setup out from winter hibernation i found that the old dell computer was dead and wont boot so i figured okay nows the time to switch everything over to my modern computer. As mentioned before I have FR1 installed on the new computer and when i plug the security dongle into the new computer the software boots perfect and seems to be working. When i plug the GC2 into the computer via USB i get no reading on the software (the GC2 unit is fine and showing data on the unit screens so i know thats working). I read a few posts and installed the newest drivers onto the computer via foresights website. I also downloaded the newest firmware for GC2 and tried installing that but the computer will not recognize the GC2 via USB. Ive attached a couple screen shots showing that the computer is showing GC2 plugged in but It wont find new drivers for it or allow me to update the firmware. Any help is appreciated. thanks

That definitely looks like a driver issue.

There are 2 sets of drivers (old and new) that Foresight hosts on their site. Have you tried both of the x64 versions they have available?

Have you tried the drive? Can always move it to the new box and run FR1 from it, as long as you can relabel it first so it doesn't cause a boot issue.

Edit: never mind, seems like it's an OS driver issue and not the software. My bad.

i tried the updated GC2 drivers, maybe the original one will work?
