How do I find and install a driver for my Janome 10000 Plus it is a 3.0 version I want it to be compatible with my windows 7

Most likely your machine is compatible with an older version of Windows.

check with janome to see if they have a update or patch

There are software updates for the Customizer 10000. See: http://content.janome.com/index.cfm/LearningCenter/Software_Updates . Drivers and installers have changed over time.

I do not know the limitations of the update software.

I hope this helps.

(The other thing to try is the compatibility mode. This may work directly - right click on the installer and choose Properties. Then choose the compatibility tab and set the Program to always run as compatible with XP. Then right click again and choose Run as Administrator. If this doesn't work, another option is to run a second computer with an older version of Windows. You can use a true second computer, a dual boot computer or a virtual computer (which takes a portion of memory from the main computer but doesn't require a restart). If you have Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate, you can create a virtual XP computer for free. Download and install Virtual PC and XP mode from Microsoft. The other options require a valid Windows license for the older OS. Install your Customizer in the older OS as you would normally install the software.)

Have you got the cable that is compatible with your machine. If you are running Customiser 10,000 on your computer it should be fine otherwise it could be that you are running Windows7 not sure about that though.

Windows 7 is not compatible to your Digitizer 10000.
You may need a software driver to configure it with
the new operating system. You should know that there are lots of things that work with Windows XP and won't work with Win 7. So try surfing the internet
at Microsoft to address your problem.

See if you can run the program in compatibility mode, with win 2000 or xp.

I had the same problem. I download the latest version of easy transfer. The driver is in this version. My computer still could not find the driver. I went into the program file where easy transfer was downloaded and copied the driver file for Windows XP or whatever version you use, to a cd. Opened up my device manager found the usb controller with a yellow question mark, double clicked the yellow question mark and clicked reinstall driver. Then you choose the custom install and tell it to look on your cd. It should install the driver. I restarted my computer. Your files should transfer.

Simply contact your nearest Janome dealer, or the Head office in your country and they will be pleased to assist and outline the options available.

Try downloading the updates for your software from Janome Global, downloads, software. Version 1 needs patches to make it compatible with XP. The most current Version for the 10000 software is 2.21, and the upgraded program is Digitiser pro/MB , a much more stable and far easier version to work with. The upgrade has to be purchased via a dealer or direct from Janome.

You need to have Customizer og Digitizer pro to send design by cable to you MC10001.

You can also use a PCMCIA adapter in your MC10001 and a CF memorycard..you also need a memorycard reader to write to your CF card from your computer
