if 7.4 still runs but not anything after 8.0, it is most likely what I have=
 written. Some USB hardware is not supported anymore in 8 and later.

I would install the old one just to see  You will also know wat hwardware i=
s used there and how it is supported.

This might be the faster route before starting debugging something which is=
 not there.
