Ive also tried downloading the drivers from SADES website - But as I run the setup of the driver, the setup is interrupted and a message saying SADES 7.1 Sound Effect Gaming Headset does not exist, the installation program will be terminated now. While plugged in, the SRD00F1 makes a barely audible internal buzz, about once every 1.8 second (yes I timed it). With fixed and a recommendation to uninstall 7. I also tested a known working flash drive on the same ports without issues. I've tried different USB ports as well as different USB cables from other Seagate drives.

While plugged in, the SRD00F1 makes a barely audible internal buzz, about once every 1.8 second (yes I timed it).

When I go to install them, it says that the Sades 7.1 ch gaming headset does not exist, the installation will be terminated. In Properties, under the General tab it says 'this device is working properly', the Volumes tab is completely blank with nothing to show under disk information or volumes, and the drivers are all up to date, but when I go to the details tab and select Problem Code from the menu, it gives me a 00000000 code. Basically all I can do there is check the properties of the drive. The drive doesn't show up in file explorer or in disk management, the only place it will show up is in device manager. Included with the usb audio adapter is the xear 3d software for virtual 7.1 channel sound for use with win xp,win vista, win 7, win 8 and win 8.1. I have a Seagate Backup Plus portable drive m# SRD00F1, that I can't seem to access anymore.
