SDIO v2 is now available for download on the web page. I won't be putting it in the weekly updates until we know it's stable.
Change Log
Version 2.0.0.875
11 August 2026I've completely deconstructed and rewritten the toolchain build
process so I can update the tools and dependent libraries in a more
controlled fashion. Jumping ahead 8 years in the libtorrent-rasterbar
code and 5 years in the boost code inevitably resulted in a large
chunk of the SDIO code base being broken. As a result, much code,
including the entire updates code, has been rewritten. This I think
has resulted in nicer, easier to maintain code and better front-end
functionality. The downside is the new torrent code no longer supports
Windows XP/Vista so I've created a special build without Updates code
that will run on XP. The upside is we now have a special build
completely devoid of torrent code that we can run in 'sensitive'
environments on any Windows version. I am yet to see a bad cast error
or any issues with ipv6. No doubt we'll see brand new issues instead.
The language files have been heavily modified for the new functions.
Translations gratefully accepted.* SamLab Driver Packs 26.06.1
* SDIO Driver Packs 26.08.2
* Added hwid ignore list (right click on a device in the list)
* Moved redundant driver pack removal into the code
* Added spaces as appropriate to some language strings
* Removed update menu options
* Added an Updates button to the main screen
* Updated the Updates dialog for more functions and info.
* New XP build with torrent code removed.
* Updated all themes for readability.
* Updated Welcome dialog.
* Added new Clean theme
* Tools updated as follows:
code blocks v25.03
msys2 v20220503
gcc v8.1.0
boost v1.79.0
libwebp v1.6.0
libtorrent v1.2.20
7-Zip v26.01
Ooh, lots of changes.....I'm giving it a go now and currently downloading the packs, will report any issues.
One hang over from v1 is the Dark theme - it doesn't seem to obey any of the sizing rules, always seems to maximise to full screen when I switch to it and I have to reduce the size manually. It's the only theme I like tbh, though a dark version of the metalic would be nice. All the other themes seem to behave.
Did you extract the theme files from the new zip file? Also, check your sdio.cfg file, look for -wndwx and -wndwy. Either reset them or remove them. You'll have to close SDIO first.Ooh, lots of changes.....I'm giving it a go now and currently downloading the packs, will report any issues.

I've posted a v2.0.1 build here. It's basically a bug fix, looking to get the new torrent code under control.
Yes, that looks great
For some reason I don't get email notifications for subscribed threads, so didn't see your reply until I saw the new change log. When I ran SDIO it never saw the newer release was it meant to or are we supposed to do it manually for now?
@taomyn maybe something like this?

I put it in the v2.0.1 zip. Maybe check your spam folder. I know I'm getting the emails. The v2 releases are not on the auto updates yet until I know it's stable.

It's fixed, Glenn.
I did a complete driver download without any stoppages. 👏🙂

Nope, nothing in spam - I suspect it just doesn't like my email address
