The Robins have dropped only two points in six home games and bossed County, but manager Cooper said:
"We played well, with purpose, but we didn't finish it off properly. 2-0 is a horrible score line when you have so much possession."
Former Newcastle misfit Nile Ranger opened the scoring from eight yards in the eleventh minute.
Hit man Ranger was booted out of Toon, but nodded in Alex Pritchard's corner from six yards for his fourth of the campaign as he makes the most of another chance at the County Ground.
Co-striker Danny N'Guessan doubled the lead from the spot in the 28th minute after Sierra Leone full back Mustapha Dumbuya up-ended winger Nathan Byrne.
Striker Danny Haynes fired a 73rd minute penalty high over the bar after Callum McGregor was felled by Yaser Kasim to sum up County's night.
Bartosz Bialkowski pulled off a string of excellent saves as Swindon threatened a rout and when he was beaten by Byrne in the last minute, his post rescued him.
Magpies boss Chris Kiwomya fumed:
"We have to be stronger and more physical in our defending."
