I finally got Method 1 to work. Thanks very much for the tip. I'm not sure why it didn't work first time around, maybe a reboot IS needed after disabling Windows driver verification. In the interim I had sent a support request to Roland who told me my product was not compatible with Win 10. When I told them it was and they should update their Win 8 driver setup files in accordance with this thread, I got the usual corporate legalistic nonsense about them not supporting Win 10 with my product & not supporting modifications to their drivers. Naturally I will now think long & hard before I buy another Roland product, but for now my Edirol FA-101 is working in Windows 10 very nicely thank you!
