Q. I have dj mixing console for Virtual DJ software based on ASIO driver. In previous version of Windows (7) it worked fine. Now I am unable to install this console. Windows doesn’t recognise the hardware. Does Windows 10 support ASIO based devices? On asio4all website there is no driver for Windows 10.
Answer.
This issue occurs due to the outdated and incompatible Universal ASIO Driver.

- Press (Windows key + X) and click on “Device Manager”.
- Locate and expand Universal ASIO Driver.
- Right click on the Universal ASIO Driver and select “Update Driver Software”. Once this is done, restart the computer and check, if it works.
