So I recently acquired a few of the [Dream Cheeky Big Red Button varieties.] (http://www.mywoot.net/past/details.php?id=4117)They are surprisingly well built and make very nice large buttons for projects given how cheap they were. I would like to get them to work through USB, but am also happy to rip them up and use them as a simple button for an electronics project if I am unable to get them to work through software.
I have found some custom written software for windows 64bit systems that works with a similar device from the same manufacturer. discussion on the hack
Dream Cheeky Usb Dancing Robot Drivers
This is a simple program to control dancing USB toys manufactured by 'Dream Cheeky', they were produced somewhere around 2007 and identify themselves as 1941:8021. I only tested the one named 'USB dancing robot'. Ctlrobot does all the actual work.
I went through the code and replaced the vendorId and productId to match those of the device I have, but when I run the code I am getting no response from the device. The code recognizes it and connects to it, but it returns back no feature reports when I press the button. When I run USBlyzer I can see the device but when I run a capture on it I again get no response from depressing the button. Am I possibly missing a driver for the device? This is my first time trying to hack a simple USB device so I am in totally new territory. Is it common to get no responses back from a device using a USB sniffer? Are there any tools that would help me debug this further? Thanks for any help.
I've looked everywhere for drivers and such, but even the custom software that comes with the device refuses to work.

Workhorses of Computing: Desktop and Laptop Computers

Smartphones are certainly convenient, but when it's time to get down to real work, you need the power and functionality that only a desktop computer or laptop computer can provide. At eBay, we have a wide selection of desktop computers for sale, including HP PCs and desktops, Dell PCs and desktops, and even refurbished computers. Need robust computing capabilities but want something that's portable? Check out our MacBook Selection (like the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro) and PC Laptops.

What Components Should You Get?
Computer performance depends on a wide range of components including: graphics cards, CPUs, PSUs, and Motherboards. Cryptocurrency and bitcoin miners use many of the same components as PC gamers; the same high-performance graphics cards from AMD and Nvidia are as well suited for calculating currency hashes as they are for playing PC video games. Put several of them in a mining rig case with a sufficiently beefy power supply and you will soon be hashing away.
Computer Accessories, and Computer Peripherals Improve Productivity
Enhance your computing experience with computer and laptop accessories and peripherals that make working more comfortable and more effective. For example, wireless keyboards for your desktop computers or tablets make easy work of typing emails, documents and more. Scanners, including Fujitsu scanners, make it possible to capture and convert paper images into digital images. Or opt for an all-in-one desktop computer to reduce office clutter and free up desk space. In addition, we have a wide selection of printers (including HP Printers) available at many different price points, so you'll be certain to find one that fits your budget. And you'll also find many high-performance gaming computers, laptops and accessories for all your video game needs.
Thanks for any help provided. Dell optiplex 745 audio drivers windows xp. Can anyone advise how to get sound from new computer? Ray replied on June 15, 2013 The Dell 745 is technically not supported under Windows 7 so there are no drivers listed for it. However I have found the Windows 7 combo cabs available here about half way down the page has resolved a lack of Windows 7 drivers for both older Dell and for that matter non Dell hardware on occasions.
