Windows drifta device driver won’t load
Posted on April 4, 2011Tried to install the Windows Drifta software on a new Windows 7 Professional 64 bit machine, the software installed fine but when the Drifta was plugged in it said device driver could not be found. Tried to do a “repair install but this did not help.
Solution :
- Downloaded and install 7-zip (Winzip or any other zipping / unzipping tools will work)
- Extracted the archived files from the “Dstv Mobile Decoder” windows installer file to folder Dstv Mobile Decoder
- Opened the newly created folder Dstv Mobile Decoder
- Ran infcopy.exe
- Allowed the install of unsigned drivers when prompted
- Unplug (if its plugged in) and replug in the Drifta
- The device driver should now load
Problem solved.
