Hi Steve,

I fully followed below instructions on a winxp ,but always showed "unknown". I removed the "unkown device" in WDM. and tried below at least 3 times. each time, I plug in the USB, it also showed find a new device and try to install the driver, then fail. it is a bit frustrating. my customer also met the same problem.

can you double check if this driver is no problem? it is a bit urgent.

1. USB-MODEVM_vista&7.inf

2. USB-MODEVM_WDM.inf

Instructions for installing these files:

No..still show as “unknown” in device management. I seriously doubt the driver ‘s correction. Both my customer and I failed to install the driver on all kinds of windows systems,even include the virtual machine . Would you please try the driver on a clear windows system which not install this driver before.if ok,please share the driver you correctly installed.thanks.

Yue TANG,

This Driver will work on Windows vista, or windows 7. It will also work on windows 10 if the Signature checking is disabled.

I am positive that the driver works as I have it installed on my machine running windows 7, and I've helped many customers install it on other windows vista, 7 and 10 machines.

your USBMOD-EVM might have corrupted firmware, but I wouldn't expect that if the EVM is new. If it has been used with other TI EVMs, like the TLV320AIC3254, the Firmware is different, so the GUI would not recognize the board

IF you are confident that you have followed the Driver installation correctly and it is still not working, I would recommend reinstalling the Firmware.

Instructions are in the thread below:
e2e.ti.com/.../2731841

The Instructions must be followed very closely. DFUTEST is admittedly a little glitchy. if you follow the instructions as written, you will be fine.

The Board is new. I tried the instructions about 20 times, also stucked at the step 5. Maybe the board is broken. I will get a new one to try.

Yue,

you must unplug the USB cable first, then short SDA and SDL, then plug the board in, start the software, and once the software opens, remove the short.
