Device: Kobo Aura One (ex Kindle, Sony 505)
It failed (on Dell laptop with Intel chipset) with both the Windows certified drivers that were auto downloaded, and also with the Intel drivers that I manually installed. I can try the ones from the Dell site.

I set my USB ports to be 2.0 in the BIOS and that worked perfectly on the same install.

I work in IT with these same laptops every day (500 users), and the only time I have ever seen this fastfat.sys crash is with Calibre + Kobo. I mention this because we have a ton of USB devices, it seems that this is the only combo to make this problem appear. I just can't imagine what is causing it. Kovid confirms that Calibre doesn't use any low level calls, just normal filesystem operations.

But yes to confirm, absolutely no issues using the Kobo with Windows explorer and USB 3.0.
