Hello,
I recently attempted to use the WhipperSnapper platform on my Adafruit Funhouse. I followed this guide: https://learn.adafruit.com/quickstart-a ... persnapper but now my board is unresponsive. It does not reset when I press the reset button, nor when I hold BOOT and press reset. I cannot see the device in Windows as a storage device or as a COM device, nor can Chrome see the device when I attempt to connect.
Suggestions?

When you unplug the Funhouse and plug it back in then use the sequence to get into ROM bootloader does that help?
Does any COM port show up on Windows even if the mounted device does not appear?To enter ROM bootloader mode, hold down DFU button while clicking reset button mentioned above.

Progress,
I unplugged the device, plugged it in (nothing detected), then healed down the BOOT button and pressed RESET with BOOT still down. I don't see a storage device, but I do see it as a COM device now. How should I proceed?
Thanks!

Re: Unresponsive Funhouse after Wippersnapper Install
Good enough. All we need is a COM port. It sounds as though the bootloader is stuck on your Funhouse so you will need to reload it. It is a four step process that is well documented here.
