First, my apologies if this is the wrong place to have posted this, I'm not sure if I am dealing with a Labview issue or a Windows issue, any help would be appreciated.
I recently upgraded to Windows 10 on my home laptop where I run Labview Home & Student. Two of my drivers are giving me issues when trying to run Labview -
One is the National Instruments GPIB-USB-HS where windows reports that there is no driver for this device, the other is a BK 8510 electronic load, interfaced with the IT-E132 USB interface cable - on this, Windows reports a 'Code 10' error which says that 'a device that does not exist was specified'
I plugged my work laptop which runs Windows 7, and Labview 14 into my system, and drivers loaded automatically and worked properly.
Have others seen issues with drivers under windows 10?

99% sure all drivers are currently not supported on Windows 10.
Have you checked the readme for the version of the driver you're installing?

Hi sauerwald,
Your GPIB-USB-HS is compatible with NI 488.2 on Windows 8/7, and the NI 488.2 driver is compatible with Windows 10, but we do not yet have conclusive information on if your device will work properly on Windows 10. I would assume that it should, but you might not know for sure until the read me file is updated. Please see the following resources:

If you do have the newest version of NI-488.2 installed, then you can go into Windows Device Manager and right-click to associate the correct driver with your device.
For your third party software, you can check if we have a driver , or procure a driver from the manufacturer.
