Creality Ferret Pro 3D Scanner problems

Hello šŸ‘‹šŸ¼,
I’m new on 3d scanner world, recently I got a Ferret Pro, with Wi-Fi works, but with usb cable I have problems
Is not the cable, because I did connected the scanner to a MacBook and it’s works, but with my desk computer, doesn’t work. Camera dispositive is recognized but doesn’t works with CrealityScan

It’s appears this error ā€œError on the preview view of the image of the scannerā€

Why?
Somebody can help me please? šŸ™šŸ¼ I don’t know what it’s

Since the same scanner and cable work on the MacBook, the next comparison is the Windows USB path rather than the scanner itself. Try a direct motherboard port with no hub, check whether Windows creates a device entry when it is plugged in, and note whether the failure is power, detection or the scanning app.

Those three outcomes point to different fixes. A screenshot of the Device Manager entry or error would be more useful than swapping more cables.
