I followed all of the steps in the link above, and was able to install the P&PSDE, but there was a yellow circle with an exclamation point in it explaining that it couldn't run because it couldn't install the necessary drivers. I tried letting it look for the drivers online, I tried pointing it to my temp directory, but every time it said it couldn't find any better match than what was already installed. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but got the same results. Technically, the Enumerator was installed, but it wasn't working because it couldn't install the necessary drivers.

Clean install time?

Try this way using your Win disc

Load win disc, then exit the program. Go to Device Manager - right click Plud & Play device - select Update Driver - No, not this time - select radio button Install Software Automatically ( recommended ) Device Manager should pick the driver from the Win disc
