Hi ,

My launch pad is not detecting in my window 7 laptop. I need any drivers for this ?

    You need a specific driver for the emulator on the launchpad to be recognized as such, I think it's in the USB Developers Package or the MSP Debug Stack

    Else the COM port which has the FET attached will install using a generic serial port driver, which CCS does not recognize as FET, at leasts that's what I've experienced before using a launchpad.

    If your device manager under 'Ports (COM & LPT)' does not show a "MSP Debug Interface (COMx)' but a generic (USB) serial port, you need to uninstall and/or update the driver.

    EDIT: I found the driver
