    Ok this midi yoke (joke) has to go. The problem is I can't find an easy way to uninstall it. It's messing up all the other midi drivers in the PC and I want to take it out.
    Thanks

    I'm sure you've probably used the add/remove programs to un-install it.

    Then I'd manualy go thru and remove any folders from my C: drive.

    Lastly, I'd use regedit to find any other references to midiyoke.

    Good Luck.

    as it is described in the *manual* you have to do it via the settings
    open settings | controlpanel | system | harware | devicemanager
    expand the sound-, video- and gamecontroller section
    rightclick midiyoke and choose uninstall
    it is recommended to reboot your system at this point

    Well that's the strange part. It does not show up for uninstall, and it does not show under Device Manager either. But it does show it's ugly little self in giga. And it's screwing up the midi routing. I have problems with it just about every day. The PC that I installed the demo on is loosing midi settings all the time. I have to fight with it, restart etc. to get it to come back. The other PC I have that does not have midi joke installed on it is absolutely fine.

    Christian,
    Do you or anyone else have a step by step manual procedure I can follow to uninstall this thing? I've looked all over the system, in the windows folder etc, trying to find the driver but I haven't found it and I don't want to muck up my system by getting rid of the wrong thing. You guys should put that thing out with an uninstall feature. I've heard from some others that I'm not the only person running into problems with midi yoke.

    the procedure is just the one i described above
    possibly you can select *show hidden devices* from the view-menu to see it

    make sure you dont choose *disable* but *uninstall*

    btw: not sure, i got you right, but midiyoke has obviously never been intended to be more than a beta for NT/W2K/XP and is not developed by VSL

    Thanks Christian,
    I thought the midi yoke was yours because it installed off of your Demo CD

    I finally got rid of it and I'm happy to report that everything works fine again. By the way if anyone else runs into this problem you have dig through the windows /sys folder and a few sub folders to find several files relating to Myoke.
