Hi Elias,

This could be an OBF(Out of box failure) if you did not successfully use this PPK2 with a PC before. You can further test it with another PC or test another PPK2 with your PC if you are able to get one to confirm.

Try to contact the local distributor or our sales team to get replacement for a broken PPK2.

Best regards,

Charlie

Code 43 is the br0ken device code - the device is nor longer able to correctly talk "USB" at all.

I'd try a new USB cable fist, but that code implies hardware problems.

Hi Charlie,

Yes, I'm using Data/Power.

No, I didn't try on Win10.

On device Manager it says:

Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed).

and

Windows stopped this device because it encountered problems. (Code 43)

I've tried all the suggestions, but I believe it didn't find the correct driver.

I removed all software and reinstalled it without success.

Is there any way to completely remove the software with all drivers to re-install? If I use the stand uninstall of windows, still a lot of register entrees (REGEDIT).

Only once it worked and I got the report bellow, then it stop working.

Thanks,

Elias

Hi Elias,

You do not need a driver for PPK2, it is installed automatically.

1) There are two use ports on PPK2, can you confirm that you are using USB DATA/POWER?

2) Did you test with a Win10 machine?

Best regards,

Charlie

Which error does device manager show? "Driver not found" is a different error code than "device does not work".
