I haven't noticed any incompatibility. I mean the Fantom doesn't work but I don't care since it hasn't for years.

Thanks for your reply. You mean i can use my vs 700 r and all the input and output and control panel will recognize by the modified driver? 

yes ... and as mentioned before - if you do an in-place upgrade to win10 all software remains installed and working (i.e. I/O control panel) - if you do a clean win10 installation, you need to dig out an old installer for the vs-700 IO control app

Great post & how expensive it would be to replace control surface & interface- thank you!!!!!

Just to clarify, did you uninstall the drivers before updating to the Anniversary Update and then reinstall as per hacked instructions or just update Win 10, uninstall and reinstall the tweaked drivers?

Great.  I'm still waiting for the update but might do it manually now that I know the step's.  Thanks.

Hello All,
 
I cannot begin to thank you all, each of you, enough for saving my arse time and time again on here when it comes to this forsaken (literally) V-700 system.  I have been using my V-700 set (C and R) system just fine all these months in Windows 10 without any issue, when suddenly after what seemed like a routine update (Windows and NVidia, I think), my OS could no longer find my hardware.  Sonar Platinum couldn't find my Master bus, and I was freaking out!

I came across this thread, managed to uninstall the drivers, etc, etc.  Initially, I too was having trouble with "install/uninstall" issue.  Then I read about how to turn off the driver-signing signatures.
 
Thank you TerraSin and others for providing the instructions and files.  The updated setup files I downloaded here was simply magic!

Here's my new issue, however.  I went through all the steps, and now my V700C is working just fine in Sonar, by itself.  But when I flip the number 1 dip switch back off on the back of V700C, connect the I/O cable, and then turn on the V700R, I lose everything in Sonar.  I need the V700R because it is my primary I/O and the master audio goes out from it.

Does anyone know what I need to do to get the V700R working again with the V700C?  Is there a similar install process I have to go through for the Rack unit?

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me out.

got the PMs and just send you a copy of the moded installers for both VS700C and VS700R that worked for me

First of all, thank you all for the work in getting the V700 working in windows 10!  I had use this forum earlier in the year to get my V700 console working after upgrading from windows 7.  Now, however it has stopped working since Windows force updated to 1607 last night. 
 
I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver using the previous instructions that had worked for me in the past with no luck.  I got to the point where the install program asked me to plug the device in.  When I did windows made it's usual "found a new device" sound but the VS-700 showed up in the device manager with an exclamation point and a question mark icon and the driver install program never found the device to continue the installation.  I then attempted to uninstall the driver again and now I get this screen every time I try to reinstall.  No matter what I have tried I can't seem to get past this screen.

Thanks for the reply Beeej21.  I do only have the v700 console.  I also have turned off Driver Signatures every time I've attempted this.  At one point early on in my attempts I had the install program working all the way to the final step but the actual detection of the v700 console didn't happen when I powered it up.  At that point it did show up in the device manager, however again, the install program never detected it.  Since then I only get the above message "An Error Has Occurred...." ever time I tried to install.

Yup, all those are a check.  I didn't have the dip switch down but I tried it again with number 1 off to no avail.  It has been up this whole time in the "ON" position and the console was working fine before the 1607 update.  What I'm wondering is if there is a registry key I need to delete that is making the driver install think that there is still installed drivers.  I've searched around in the registry to no avail.

Did any of you guys with a functional VS-700R / VS-700C on 1607 come from a clean build (as opposed to in-place upgrades)? I read somewhere that the driver signing disabled trick to install legacy drivers only works for upgraded machines ...

Nevermind. I gave it a go and everything is fine. VS-700R and VS-700C installed on all systems with win10 #1607 without any issues (well, the issue was to get 1607 itself installed because one machine just wouldn't want to). So contrary to what is out there somewhere on the web it did not make a difference whether you come from a clean build or an in place upgrade.
