May I enter this discussion with a word of hope. I just bought a QHY5 overseas and had exactly the same mind-numbing experience of installing according to the instructions but still being frustrated when none of the programs would recognise the camera. I was using the USB2 cable that was supplied with the camera. I went to bed determined to get it going in the cold hard light of day. It's now 2 a.m. and I'm having one final go at it but with this difference - I just switched to another cable I have here (also USB2) and lo and behold, the darn thing worked. And just to prove it is cable-related, it does not wsork on the supplied cable but does on my old one. SO the moral is, switch cables and try again.
