cant get usb to serial to work...

Post by lorax_108 »

I bought the minipov3 kit along with the usb to serial adapter to program it.

built the kit, seems to be working the leds work, but after installing all the avr programing software I cannot get the usb to serial converter to start. my OS keeps saying device fails to start code 10.

I went to the prolific web site to get the latest driver but it doesnt seem to help.

My OS is win7 64bit, core duo 3400 3.0GHz, 4 gigs mem.

Anyone else having this issue with the usb/serial adapter?
