Morning Ray,
Dave here (SharpSky designer).
That is an interesting problem, however all sorts of crazy stuff can happen when an operating system goes over.
You don't need to re-flash the PIC microprocessor - it has no concept of being connected to Windows or any other operating system for that matter. The PIC only sees the USB connection and only sees the driver and ASCOM interface.
First of all when you plug in the SharpSky controller do you get the characteristic noise (ding-dong) from the PC and the Link LED goes out ? This indicates the PC has identified the SharpSky controller as a generic HID device and subsequently enumerated.
Assuming the above :
Following a re-boot uninstall the driver via the windows control panel. Check the .DLL has been removed and if not delete the .DLL
Now re-install the driver as normal.
Try connecting using SGP - does SGP actually say that it is connected ?
Let me know how you get on and we will go from there.
Cheers & clear skies,
Dave
