you don't need any drivers. The drivers are included in CCS and in the GUI Composer application that you would use to connect to the Launchpad.

which version of CCS are you using?

import proj_lab01 from the appropriate path. For example for BOOSTXL-DRV8301
C:\ti\motorware\motorware_1_01_00_16eric\motorware_1_01_00_16\sw\solutions\instaspin_foc\boards\boostxldrv8301_revB\f28x\f2802xF\projects\ccs5\proj_lab01

press the little green bug icon.

it should build the project, launch the debugger, connect to the MCU, and load the .out

Hi Manpreet,

When you installed CCS, did you choose the option to install "TI Emulators"? If so, this should have installed the drivers that Windows needs.

===

Please note that with the portions of the kit that were able to find drivers, you should be able to connect your launchPAD to Code Composer Studio and begin evaluation. The driver that seems to be failing is the virtual comport driver, which you may not need.

If you want to see if you can get the last driver to install correctly, I might recommend that you try and run the .bat file located in the attachment of the following post:

Let us know how things go.

Thank you,
Brett
