I have recently moved to Windows 10 and my M-Audio midi keyboard is behaving a bit funny (LCD screen keeps counting to 127 over and over) so I figure it needs a driver update.

On their website I follow the prompts to get my correct driver ( http://www.m-audio.com/support/drivers ) Keyboard Controllers / Oxygen 49 Silver / Windows 10 64 bit.

The next page is kind of weird (if you want to follow me) but I assume the idea is to download from the prompt at the very bottom of the screen. So I download that, and when I unzip it there is about 100 more zipped files inside, none that relate specifically to what I need.

I'll attach the zip file I downloaded and you can see for yourself:
Enigma XML.zip
(877.53 KiB) Downloaded 238 times
Can anyone recommend what to do here? I need to register to contact their support and hoping someone here can help before I go digging around for purchase info.

Any ideas?

i don't think there is any "driver update" at least not the kind you are looking for. those XML files i think are just preset mappings for different DAWS and Midi controllers all in one .ZIP file.

Are you saying this from experience? Are you suggesting there are no drivers? I know those are mapping files but if you follow the destination path I described this is what is downloaded from the 'driver' section of the website.

Still need help with this if anyone has any idea, thanks.

the Oxygen 49 is class-compliant, meaning it is using drivers built into your OS

edit: maybe this can help http://www.noterepeat.com/articles/pc-t ... eripherals
