The controller also detects as a controller and works fine, but it also thinks it's a floppy drive. Which is very odd. Any reason this might happen?

Are you using homegroup for networking? homegroup is for win 7 machines only.

I'm on Win7.

I'm connected via 'Network' not homegroup to my Mac and the other PC in the studio.

No one got a suggestion as to why this is happening and how to stop it?
