You say "trying to overwrite with the Behringer drivers": but how
exactly are you doing this? If you're trying to do a manual "Update
driver" from Window's Device Manager: I'm not sure that would work.

It should work like this:

1. With the USB cable connected, switch on the BCR.

2. If it hasn't been installed before, Windows' "USB Audio Device"
automatically gets installed. This item should appear under "Sound,
video and game controllers" in Windows' "Device Manager" (run via
"Control Panel" -> "System" -> "Hardware").

3. Run the Behringer USB driver's setup program; for the latest
version 1.2.1.3 that's "bcr2000-driver-setup.exe". You may get 1 or 2
warnings from Windows that you're installing "unsigned" drivers or
something, but you can simply choose "Continue" in these cases.
This installation should replace the item "USB Audio Device" with
"B-Control Midi (10/9/2005,1.2.1.3)" in Device Manager.

If this doesn't work, I really don't know what's wrong.

Hope this helps,
Mark.
