Slikstik tornado spinner not working with Vista
« on: July 10, 2008, 12:21:55 am »
Hello,

I'm curious to know if anyone has a Slikstik tornado spinner working with Vista.  I've recently gotten a new Vista system and it won't recognize the spinner when I connect it to the USB port (nothing happens at all!) My XP machine still detects the spinner just fine.  I'd really hate to think I have to scrap the spinner since Slikstik is now out of business and I doubt they are making drivers for the unit any more.  Can someone help?

UPDATE: Ok, I've been able to deduce that it DOES work with Vista, though only when the spinner is connected directly to the system.  If it's plugged into my hub, even when it's the only device on it, it doesn't get detected, no matter which port I try.  XP will detect it though the hub without a problem though.  The hub is powered, so that isn't the issue.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Shoegazer
