hello everyone
I bought a few days ago, a "Pocket AVR Programmer" but I can not get it working or "winavr" or "AVR Studio".
When you connect via USB, while light of "POWER" I do not detect any windows device type. which I can not get the drivers.
"http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/produc ... ts_id=9231"
This is true? or could be damaged?

thanks

I also can't seem to get the pocket programmer to be recognized by windows.

when i plug it in i get a "device not recognized" so i manually point to the drivers using the device manager. The result is "No drivers were found at this location".

Device Instance ID is being listed as
USB\VID_0000&PID_0000\5&212AB1B5&0&1

The cheap USB hub hack described in another thread viewtopic.php?t=16048 worked for me.

I haven't tried AVR Studio as I just started, but the pocket AVR programmer working using avrdude under Vista 32 bit. I'm connecting my programmer using a non-powered Radio Shack USB hub. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post model numbers of non-sparkfun parts but you can PM me if you want the specific hub I used.

I just pluged it in, upon being pormted from usb "new device detected" entered path to the driver, that I had unzipped after downloading from Sparkfun, and it worked.
