Thanks for the prompt delivery, for info:- spent hours yesterday trying to sort this out with the new data cable, i was ready for giving up when i noticed one of the controllers, the second in line had a very low red light, nowhere near as bright as usual, after removing the controller from the series things at last started to happen, all i can think is that the controller failed some how and blew the data cable, at least now on the other controllers tested separably, they all show in device manager, hopefully now i can get everything rewired and working, i have ordered another controller.
Thanks for your help.
