I rightclicked on the .inf and tried to install it and i went to device manager>unknown device and navigated to the ems folder but no driver was found .
I'm thinking about getting a shitty old pc with windows xp on it (or would a virtual machine do it?)
Thanks

if so, that's the issue.  you've got to do an entirely manual install with this.  meaning, you direct it to the files.  don't let it look at all or do anything auto

Before i reinstalled Windows 7 Ult 64bit everything worked fine, but now i can't install the drivers anymore and I tried almost everything e.g The .sys and .inf on the CD, downloaded from the website, installed in actual Test mode (f8 at startup), I've fully disabled the UAC. When I try to install the .inf it says that the Installation Method is not supported by the inf-file.

Thank

I'll try it later tonight. Thanks, Kitsch. helpful as always.

there is an instructional document either on the minidisc, or in your download.  i think you're missing the instructions maybe, because they're step-by-step essentially

if you went straight to running the program, you left out the whole 'installation' part (i.e., a .sys and .inf file are missing on your comp)

bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF

should take you out after a reboot.

so this annoying little thing is due to the ems disk?

that's because the OS is in test mode.  this displays in the corner as long as its still in test mode.

when you take it out of test mode, it goes away.

this 'test mode' of which i speak is an entirely different aspect from the EMS stuff altogether.

in short, microsoft made a security change in win7 which made running third-party, unsigned drivers somewhat tedious.  because microsoft requires the drivers to be registered with them for them to have this 'signed' status, developers and people who simply don't want to go through microsoft find workarounds.

the simplest thing to do is just forget the whole DSEO software part entirely.  hold f8 at start-up, this will put the computer into test mode.  and it will say this in the corner as long as its in test mode.

i'm assuming putting it back into normal mode involves holding f8 again, but if not the DSEO software will do this for you too

THEN comes the EMS part.  you'll still need to use the DSEO software to 'sign' them. 

hope that helps a little

you did install the EMS drivers, didn't you? the test mode text means you should be ready to roll provided you installed the drivers and the gb_usb software

that text goes away after restarting when you run dseo13b.exe and select the "disable test mode" option (but that stops the EMS cart from being recognised)


It hasn't gone away and still hasn't recognized the driver.
