RNDIS USB driver causing BSOD on Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (version 1709)

Finally solved it!

We had to change the RNDIS driver on the device to behave as Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter, by changing the Device descriptor fields bDeviceClass = 0xEF, bDeviceSubClass = 0x01 and bDeviceProtocol = 0x01.

This are the values used by Active Sync.

We also had to install Windows Mobile Device Center on the Windows 10 PC to get the Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter driver working. This also works on the Creators Fall (1803) version of Windows 10!

No need for self-made .INF files or driver signing anymore, everything is signed by Microsoft now.

Hi @all,

same behaviour here with the Motorola / Zebra MC9200 Bar-code Scanner. If we Cold Boot the Device, Windows 10 (1709) will end in a BSOD before the Device lets You align the Windows CE Screen.

I managed to disable the USB Interface with devcon.exe by disabling the USB-Host ->

devcon.exe disable "USB\VID_05E0&PID_200D"

After the Cold Boot / Align Screen I just turn it ON again ->

devcon.exe enable "USB\VID_05E0&PID_200D"

It´s also possible to disable the RNDIS Network Interface (but iface name is generic on different machines) ->

netsh interface set interface "Ethernet 3" disabled

Have you checked the solution offered by Tom's Hardware?

Hello Valdemar,

we are already in contact with Microsoft support about this problem:

REG:117111617169605

Best regards

Hi,

Usually, you'll encounter blue screen errors when Windows encounters something that it can't process which causes it to stop or crash. We need to do further investigation on your concern so that we can identify the cause of the issue. Kindly answer the following questions for clarification:

• What is the make and model of the computer?
• Have you checked the manufacturer's website to determine its compatibility with Windows 10?
• Aside from the instruments that they are using, did they also encounter the same issue with other devices that they are trying to connect in the USB socket?

Furthermore, we suggest that they close the wizard then restart the computer if the setup does not process. You may follow the steps in this forum article made by Andre Da Costa on how to upgrade Windows 10 manually.

We're looking forward to your response.
