Hello,
When installed a few months ago everything worked fine. Last night I could not either connect or if I got connected the downloads either took a long time or just got hung up. This is with both Maxim and SKY X using the native drivers as opposed to the ASCOM drivers. I reloaded the Atik software but noticed that the device showed up as a USB device in device manager (Win8) although I thought that it used to be listed as an astroimaging device in its own device manager category. Am I remembering incorrectly. Where does your device show up?
Any suggestions as to what device drivers to use native or ASCOM?
thanks,
Ron K
