Lawrence,

I believe this is due to an incompatibility with the requested driver being 32-bit and Windows 10 only providing 64-bit. At this time, we don't have plans in place to fix this.

Would a Windows 7 VM be acceptable? That might work, but I haven't tried it.

Ron,

Win7 VM under Win10 would still require the driver to operate under Win10 right before it can handoff to the VM right? Is there a 3rd Party option?

Lawrence,

I'm certainly not a VM expert and haven't tried it. I don't know of any 3rd parties with this particular expertise.

Ron,

Is there Linux alternative option to program AM3505 over USB? Assume using the latest 64bit LTS Linux (4.14 or later).

Regards,

Lawrence
