GCM4 can't upload code

Post by GMagician »

Hello,

I received a fresh new board today. It works and I tried to install a new program with my arduino ide and I did it...but after this install I can't upload anything else.

When I power up the board I get a new com port on my pc, COM7, I double press reset button and lose COM7 but I get a new com port (COM6) and a new unit GCM4BOOT, newpixel is green and I have a red fading led...so I'm in boot and here are the issues:
1) If I try to copy INFO_UF2.TXT in my desktop...my win10 will be stuck on copy operation..
2) If I try to ubload a new code arduino IDE says "No device found on com6"

What's wrong with it?

The first one sounds like this:

and the second one may be related. Do you have any of that running?
