That's what I thought it might say.  There's an off by one error in
the USB descriptors, I guess Windows 10 is more strict about this.

I'm trying to build you a firmware binary so that you can test an
updated firmware to see if it fixes the problem.  Unfortunately I'm
flighting the compiler right now.  I'll upload something when I manage
to build it.

I think its more of a Win 10 issue since the Yardstick works just fine on Windows 7 as  the host and VMware Player. Have a colleague that has the exact same issue on this Windows 10 system as well with his Yardstick.
