After several installation issues I finally achieved an apparently complete install of the TLV320DAC32EVM
SW on 64 bit Windows 7. I say “apparently” because when I connect the TLV320DAC32EVM-PDK to a
USB port to install the USB drivers, it only partly installs. The TLV320DAC32EVM-PDK enumerates as
three USB devices – a USB Composite device and two USB-MODEVM devices. The composite device and
the first USB-MODEVM device drives install correctly, but the second USB-MODEVM does not and show
up in Device Manager as an unknown device.
The TLV320DAC32EVM SW launches and shows the main window and first tab, but does not recognize
the TLV320DAC32EVM-PDK and freezes all control, even the exit box. The only way to close the
application is to kill it using Task Manager.
I also tried installing it in the Windows XP virtual machine in 64 bit Windows 7 but the SW wouldn’t even
install at all there.
I dual booted my computer into my other OS (32 bit Vista) which I keep just for test purposes. Everything
installs and functions properly, including the USB drivers, the SW works and recognizes the
TLV320DAC32EVM-PDK.
Can TI please provide updated USB drivers and/or complete new installer .exe so that it all works on 64
bit Windows 7. Thank you
