I'm trying to use the cable to download from Chromebook. Where do I find the download to change the cable's pid to the standard 6001? The links from the Picaxe site come up with a 404 error.
When I try it now, the original link (from FTDI's Readme) : http://www.ftdichip.com/Resources/Utilities.htm is working (and re-directs successfully to the above). Maybe FTDI are having some intermittent problems?
