Old 2000's keyboard I was trying to interface to my laptop is a Yamaha PSR 270 with 5 pin DINS, no USB... https://www.manualslib.com/manual/197110/Yamaha-Psr-270.htmlhttps://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=yamaha+psr-270&fr=yhs-fc-90&type=fc_AC22890F0FA_s69_g_e_d_n1_c999&hspart=fc&hsimp=yhs-90&imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fmedias.audiofanzine.com%2Fimages%2Fnormal%2Fyamaha-psr-270-1078552.jpg#id=0&iurl=http%3A%2F%2Fmedias.audiofanzine.com%2Fimages%2Fnormal%2Fyamaha-psr-270-1078552.jpg&action=click Bob

I do not have the Midisport plugged in anywhere (and I assumed the driver would show up in BIAB without the Midisport plugged in).
I go into BIAB Options>MIDI/Audio Drivers Setup but I don't see the driver in it. You probably won't see the driver unless the hardware is connected. Does it appear in the Windows Device Manager?

Audio Track-
You are correct. As soon as I connected the MidiSport MIDI in/out to the keyboard the driver showed up in BIAB/Windows 10.
And happy to report everything is working perfectly now with both the MidiSport box AND the when using the FORE usb MIDI cable. So I now
have TWO options for interfacing my old MIDI keyboard to my laptop.
Very happy now. And many, many thanks to everybody who took part in helping me in this thread.
All the best,
Bob

An excellent outcome then  You may consider to open your original post and marking it as 'Resolved' (there's a button for that). This might also assist others in the future.

Thanx Bob, I was glad that I could help.
When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Just got around to reading the reviews on Amazon for the Sanoxy cable. 40 of 400 "Does not work". No such thing as a free or under $10 lunch. What do you expect ?
Bob In my experience, BB often does not work well with these cheap MIDI interfaces. We recommend a brand name one, and from my testing the Roland UM-One works reliably. That's interesting, because (most) USB-3 computer ports also have USB-1.0 / 2.0 connections (there are two sets of power/data pins so that a USB-2.0 plug will use the USB-2.0 pins in the USB-3.0 socket. But maybe there are some USB-3.0 only connectors. The USB2 connection on a USB3 port usually goes through the USB3 controller/root hub rather than a dedicated USB2 controller. What happens is the USB3 controller tries to initialize a USB3 device, and if that fails it initializes USB2 - some "dumber" devices fire the USB2 connection signals immediately when powered, which happens to be while the USB3 controller isn't ready. From what I'm reading I'm out of luck with my alternative of using my old M-Audio Midisport 2x2 interface with USB. Its got to be 15 years old.
Apparently it is almost impossible to get a Windows 10 driver that works with it. There are two versions of the Midisport 2x2 - one that is class compliant, and one that is not. The non-class-compliant one has drivers up to Windows 8, which some people have got working on Windows 10. Might be worth a shot.
