I have a Dell 8700 which has been upgraded from 64bit Windows 7 to 10.
When I plug in a Pro Micro 5v/16MHz, I get the connect melody, but no popup. I have tried two Pro Micros with identical results.
Plugging a Pro Micro into an old XP laptop I get the expected driver balloon popup .
Looking at the device manager, there is no "Other devices /USB IO Board" on the Device Manager list. There is a "USB Composite Device" which appears when I plug in the Pro Micro. (and disappears when I remove it)
I tried installing the Sparkfun.inf driver but get a message "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems."
Device manager says the composite device is "working properly".
Attempting to install sparkfun.inf returns a "The best driver software for your device is already installed"
Any suggestions?
Thank you. -Jim
Note: I tried this a Dell XPS 8500 Win10 x64, same result.
