WiiRD cant connect to Gecko

[Chaosdragon13]

For the past 2 week I have been using my USB Gecko with WiiRD with no issues. Then I get a new laptop loaded with Windows 7 and now all of a sudden I always get a message saying that WiiRD cant connect to Gecko. I have tried searching for this issue and all I found is that it may be the drivers. So I uninstalled the drivers multiple times and tried reinstalling them in a couple different ways and still no luck. I know is not the USB Gecko itself because it still works just fine on the old computer. Any suggestions?

is the laptop HP? regardless. check if it will work in another USB slot. it might very well work. one of my drives when out on my HP, i returned the thing. then the monitor.. then i said teh hell with it, got an ASUS and havent had a problem since.

Its a Compaq laptop and I have already tried all three USB ports. None of them work.

In case you have not tried it, perhaps you could try geckodotnet (similar PC application like wiird):

Thanks for the help. Geckodotnet worked with the new computer. I am just going to have to get used to the minor changes in this program compared to WiiRD.
