Hi,
Okay, I UnInstalled the current driver for the COM3 device and it went away. I had installed my "Phrase-A-Lator Development Kit" cable and it comes in as COM4.
I installed the "CP210x_Universal_Windows_Driver" ... tried plugging in the AXE027 cable, then tried UpDating the driver and selecting in the RevEd AXE027 folder for drivers, but Windows just say's "The best driver is already installed."
When I run the PICAXE "axe027_installer.exe" it has me disconnect the AXE027 cable before running, then say's the "wizard" will assist when I plug in the cable after install.
When the "axe027_installer.exe" finishes I plug in the AXE027 cable and this is what I get;
and when I then tried UpDating the driver and selecting in the RevEd AXE027 folder for drivers, but Windows just say's "The best driver is already installed."
I no longer have COM3 (might have been that PAL cable) and I can't get anything serial for the AXE027 cable.
