Need to manually install a driver but getting an error
I'm trying to get a manually installed device driver to work under Win 10 Pro 64-bit, but I have a problem.
I copy the driver to c:\windows\system32\drivers (have also tried just c:\windows\system32 ) but on trying to start it manually from the command prompt with administrator level privileges (using sc start drivername) I get:
[SC]StartService: OpenService FAILED 1060:
"the specified service does not exist as an installed service"
I should say that I've done this before under Windows 7 Pro 64-bit without any problems. The driver is signed so should also work under Win 10.
Any ideas please?
Thanks
