Cannot install driver for serial communication
Posted: Wed May 24, 2017 10:48 am
I cannot install a driver via pybcdc.inf on one of my PCs (W7-Professional-64bit).
On the device managers control panel I get <Pyboard Virtual Comm Port in FS Mode>
If I now try to <Update Driver Software...> <Browse for driver software on your computer> <Search for driver software in this location>
<E:\ (which is the pyboard location and pybcdc.inf is definitely there)> I get the following message: Pyboard Virtual Comm Port in FS Mode
could not be installed and: The driver software for the device could not be found.
I succeeded to install drivers on two PCs using this procedure. The installed drivers were C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\usbser.sys. In the
corresponding folder on the above PC this file was missing, so I inserted a copy.
I would be very happy for any advice to solve this problem.
