no good same issue. I can not contact my boards. I can using a different laptop with .02 aurora. On my production sys I am using win 7 - and I cant get a solid lite. Almost like running in demo. Is there a way to tell what comm port I am running - It looks like 6 and that is what I have the serial too. But I have gone through th top 15 com ports and nothing...

Under Win7 - Right Click "My Computer", click Properties, on left sidebar, click Device Manager. There will be a list of all your hardware listed. Just click the + box of the COM Ports to list what ports are there and right-clilck for properties of that particular Port.

Click Start\Click Run\Enter the command "devmgmt.msc" or enter devmgmt.msc in the search box and that should start the device manager. Edited by MrChristmas2000 - 06 Dec 2009 at 9:15pm |

The exclamation mark is your issue. Unplug the USB adapter and replug. Does it still have an exlamation mark? If so, try right-click and update driver.
