nic,
I did what you suggested; turned off all automated updating and rebooted.
- Removed 3308 (w. Code 43) and was asked to reboot, which I did.
- I installed the 3345 (Driver dated 31.10.2013, downloaded yesterday), and immediately got a Code 43.
- Was not asked to reboot, but did it and am still experiencing Code 43.
I'll try a few more times and will double check that the settings are as supposed, but if I'm not back within ten minutes with differing news, I'm still having a Status Quo.
Edit: Retried the procedure to no avail. I've created a full event log since everything started, which I've enclosed. I've also included a printscreen for an error message about a missing entry, that started popping up at times after the W8.1 update. Since it hasn't been regular, I'ven't thought much about it, but who knows.
