Hi Bill,

Thanks for your ideas. I tried it before and It is showing as a USB HUB
now. I doubt if my setting of USB-PC1 and USB-PC2 were wrong. I will check
them later.

Vincent.  In the Device management panel, right click on the unknow device and 
delete it.Then in the same device management panel, Click on Actions, then 
select scan for new devices.  This last step is of course with the K4D on.  IF 
that doesn't work, restart the computer and go trough the steps again.  Beyond 
that it would appear you may need someone with more skill.  Also, try different 
USB cable, Or test the cable you are using to be sure it is ok.  Test: use the 
cable for some other equipment to attach to the computer.

Hi all,

My PC could recognize K4D as two virtual COM ports before but not since few 
days ago. The PC just shows an unknown device in the Devices Management.

I have opened the top panel to see the cable connections in the rig and they 
are well seated. Did anybody face the same problem? Could you give me any 
suggestions?

Thanks so much to all,
Vincent
