Dell Vostro 3550 Validity Sensor - Windows 8.1

Question

Hi

I tried to install Validity Sensor,X01,4.4.225.0 for my Dell Vostro 3550 On Windows 8.1

Since I have an Unknown device " USB\VID_138A&PID_0011...."

The driver installation failed:

I get a message

Validity Sensors SDK : This software requires Microsoft Windows XP with SP3, Vista or Windows 7

What can I Do?

Hi ormuser,

Drivers for Windows 8.1 for this system are still not available for this system. Hence, you might face issues with the drivers. However, I will recommend you to install the drivers in compatibility mode. Below are the steps:

Download the drivers on the desktop.
Double click on the file and extract it on the desktop in a folder.
Look for setup file in the extracted folder. Right click ‘.exe’ file and click ‘Properties’.
Click 'install in compatibility mode’.
Click on Application and select ‘Troubleshoot Compatibility’.
Next, click on ‘Troubleshoot Program’.
Click on Program worked in earlier versions of Windows.
Click on ‘Windows 7’.
Click on ‘Start the Program’.
Do not hit ‘Next’ until the installation completes.
Once the installation completes, click on ‘Next’.

Hope this helps. Please share the results.
