I have tried three computers, a half dozen USB cables and I even installed the pybcdc.inf file. I had to disable digital signatures to get it to install. All with to no avail. Oh, I also put boot.py, main.py and pypcdbc.inf on an SD card and put that in the pyboard. Nothing is working. Help... |

Low and behold, it works. So all the cables I had were not data capable. Who knew. I almost ripped my head off because of this crap. LOL |

Do you get a port if you set the Pyboard manually to firmware update mode? You can do that by connecting the boot0 pin to 3v3 and pushing reset. If you then get a USB device, you know that the hardware and wiring is working. You can upload a new firmware in that state. Make sure that you use the right firmware for your boards. There is PyBoard Lite and Pyboard 1.1 |

Thanks. I finally found a USB cable that actually worked. Now everything is great. I just have to figure out what to do with it now that it works.😀

I have a Pyboard V1.1, but when I plug it in to a usb port on my computer, it does not appear in explorer as a usb drive. It does not show up in the device manager either. I am running windows 11 pro.
