I am a user of your k8055 and K8061 for a number of projects and I have had very good results. I have a HomeManagment system with weather station that I am using your K8061. It is working good on my Desktop.
I also have a laptop Dell Latitude E6420 that I want to use for a backup Computer for my HomeManager as well as other projects. Using the same program that I use on the desktop, I get a Critical Error on my QB64 program (on the laptop) saying that it cannot find the dynamic library file, K8061.dll. I have it in the System32 folder as well as the SysWOW64 folder and the folder that the basic file is located. The K8061 Demo works great! I have also installed the driver as an unsigned driver.
The laptop can also run the K8055 Demo program as well as using a QB64 program to run the K8055.
Sorry, It was late at night when I wrote, I did copy mpusbapi.dll to all the locations that I copied the K8061.dll.
I just tried something new.
I just tried to start up my QB64 program on the Desktop without the D8061 connected by usb and it ran the QB64 program and checked for the K8061 to be connected and stopped at a QB64 programmed stop when it could not read the K8061 board.
Thank You so much for getting back to me so fast, Sorry I left out telling you of the mpusbapi.dll file…

Just to let you know, The Critical Error display (Cannot find dynamic library file) on the laptop QB64 software start, happens IMMEDIATELY when the program begins as tho it is looking for the dll file before it starts running the software in the QB64 program. As you can see in the screen copy the name of the program on the top of the file display should change to a name that is in the software, but, it remains Untitled.

OK, I stripped everything from the QB64 program and found that I get the error if I have these lines in the program…
DECLARE DYNAMIC LIBRARY “k8061”
END DECLARE
Then I get the error, otherwise I do not.
I have put in the 2 dll’s that I know of
k8061.dll and mpusbapi.dll.
In the folders as described above.
I found the issue, on the web site I have found 2 k8061.dll files. 1 file is larger 1572 kb and a smaller file 62 kb. I was using the 62 kb file on my desktop and had loaded the 1572 kb file on my laptop, which was unable to read it.
Now I am able to start and run my QB64 program, but the return from OpenDevice& is -2
Both of my systems are 64 bit systems.
Which file should I be using ,62kb or 1572 kb, and is there a difference in the mpusbapi.dll files?
How about the driver? Is there a difference on the Driver and which one should I install?
Thanks,
OK, I got it going, found the CD in the box from the i/o card. Instead of using the downloads that I had from checking the web site, I just installed from the disc, and it worked.
Thanks for your help.
