Part Number: OPT3101EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPT3101,

Hello,

I am trying to install the drivers for my OPT3101 but encounter the following problem (see picture below).

I also added the picture of the OPT3101 if that helps.

The control and data remain under other devices in device manager.

I followed the manual installation as in the guide.

And it's the latest GUI software.

How can I solve this?

Kind regards,

Scott

Hi Scott,

Is this a windows 10 platform? We have had no problems with these drivers on several windows 10 and windows 7 platforms. Could you please specify a more detailed version of the OS like Windows 10.** *?

OPT3101EVM MSP430 drivers are not digitally signed. It is possible that windows is preventing the driver. If would help if you could try disabling the digital signing checks for drivers. Information regarding how to disable digital signing can be found in the public domain.

Please let me know if this helps solve the problem.

thanks
Karthik

Windows 8.1.

Thank you, this solved my issue.
Perhaps you can include it in the manual in the future.
