the current problem with drivers is not signing, but line endings.
next mp release will fix this.

HI Michael, Can you give us timeframe for the next release? I am a little reluctant to fly using the Windows 10 laptop knowing full well that there are issues present. I too loaded the drivers in Windows 8 using the Prolific Driver package. But I encountered an error on my Windows 10 machine when upgrading MP to the current version.

I have been interfacing with my Iris over hardwire USB and with the TLM radios. The radios take a few seconds to initialize, so I plug it in before I fire up MP in Win 10, from there its smooth sailing.
I had MP installed so long on Windows 7 and 8.1 I forgot what drivers are installed, but when loading in a fresh install Win 10 Pro machine, a bunch of drivers failed installation.
I'm pretty sure these installed successfully on Win 7 and Win 8.1.
Mission Planner works fine in Win 10 in either mode on my Surface 3 pro. I was also running Andy (Android in a VM machine) but the Oracle VM doesn't work in Win 10 (think I need to reinstall).

Need to turn driver signing off before those drivers will load, even on windows 8 this was an issue.
Yes, I dug deep into my memory banks (Google) to remember how to do that.
On Win 7 it asks as I recall. On Win 8 & 10 you have to change the setting. That's the part I forgot.
Thanks for the reply.

Do you have an old computer Mark?
drivers are not required on windows 10. windows now has a cdc acm driver. so it make no diffrence

With Andy, I can also test Tower settings etc.
UPDATE: loaded the new version of Andy - below is Tower running in an Android (Andy) window over Mission Planner.
Will test with the Iris once I get home....both apps should update with the single link to the pixhawk over USB.
Same as everyone else. Windows 10 working fine with MP. I'm actually liking Windows 10 (so far).
