Usb2.0 Driver Download

[Nhyiraba Valentin]

I wanted to start a new Arduino Uno (one with a micro USB and SMD 328), RobotDyn Uno and could not get the driver properly initiated.
The CH341SER trick did it, and I can still use all other boards in use here (Pro Mini, AtTiny85,..).

The-Gadget:
yeah i have the drivers. my uno works ok. the first time i plugged it in i installed the driver and away we went.
this time with the nano i pluged it in. it asks for usb 2.0-serial drivers. i dont seem to have any files/drivers that will satisfy the needs of the 'found new hardware' window so i cancel that and then run the ftdi driver. ( the one i ran for the uno) it installs without a glitch (again) but the developer still cant see the nano and the system still wants some usb 2.0 - serial driver.

Thanks for pointing this out. I have observed this problem of the website of the CH340, wch.cn, being down some months ago. I was hoping it would come back, but now it's looking like that's not going to happen.

I think it's important to get drivers from a trustworthy source. This is why I have always recommended people to go straight to the manufacturer's website to get the CH340 driver. Since that's no longer possible, I have two alternative sources I'm considering:

The first is SparkFun's tutorial dedicated to the CH340:
-to-install-ch340-drivers/all#drivers-if-you-need-them
SparkFun is definitely a trustworthy source, and that is a nice tutorial as well. The only problem is they are providing the outdated 3.4 version of the Windows driver (I didn't check to see what the situation is for the Linux and macOS driver versions). The latest version from the manufacturer is 3.5, with a 2019-01-30 date, as compared to the 2016-09-27 date specified for the SparkFun 3.4 download.

The driver that I have downloaded work, Uno is now detected, by IDE and SimHub. Somehow The 3 motor shield V2 I have installed is not recognized/working. Can't find if it is a hardware problem or a software problem (or the problem is just me doing something wrong).
Making hardware changes is a bit difficult for how my sim rig is constructed, but until now I know everything is powered, no pins missing, and if I press the reset button of any of the motor shields, the whole Arduino system reset, so this makes me think that they are all connected and working...
Also, I have tried the IDE example (running the motors) and it also doesn't work (but the code is uploaded to the UNO (this makes me think the Driver is working OK)
This is slow.. I have to go ceteris paribus on the try and error path..
Any ideas on how to solve this are welcome!

The one in the "Please check the troubleshooting guide before posting here." post, and the link I have always recommended are the equivalents to that, except they point to the page for the .exe version of the driver package instead of the .zip.

Despite many attempts to load the pages of wch.cn (including that .zip file page) while I was investigating the issue, it was not working for me earlier today, and also not working the last time I checked it some months ago. But it is working now so I guess it must have been somewhat coincidental that it was out both the previous times (though it also likely indicates that the site's availability is unreliable).

I understood that, but I'm not going to feel comfortable recommending people to install a driver from "geekfactory.mx". Don't get me wrong, I have no reason to believe the good folks at geekfactory are unreliable, but I need to take special caution when recommending people to install software. That both because I don't want to be responsible for anyone getting hacked, but also because people are going to be suspicious (rightly so!) of some random person on a forum recommending they install something. If the source I am recommending is trusted by people, then they don't need to worry about whether I'm trustworthy. But if the source is unknown to them, they will need to trust me.

When a known USB 2.0 device is plugged in and detected, it doesn't install the driver correctly but shows a Code 28 error and lists the device under "Other Devices" in Device Manager. When view properties of this device , it shows the following status;

The other condition the driver will auto-install is when the same USB device is plugged into a USB 3.0 port. Power related issues are not also causing this as I have tried vi a Docking station, USB hub. etc..

Recently (Windows 11) I tried updating to the latest z790-e audio drivers from the ASUS support website and now in the device manager I see a default Microsoft driver Realtek USB2.0 Audio and not the usual Realtek USB Audio driver entry? And I can't run or install the Windows App Store Realtek control panel, it gets an error while trying to download. Plus, the DTS control panel app shows that I'm not licensed anymore. I have jumped through all kinds of hoops trying to figure this out. Uninstalling everything related to the Realtek drivers and starting over... same result, the Realtek USB2.0 Audio Microsoft driver shows up. I even turned off audio driver updates in Windows 11.

Has anyone else experienced this? Very frustrating. The audio works with the Microsoft driver, but I don't have access to all the different control settings / speaker / headphone impedance settings etc. mg

The no 1 authority for Windows sound is"Mokichu", currently on Windows 11 forums. However for the first time in 2/ 3 years even he did not get the correct driver or perhaps Sonic studio updates are just crap.

Hi, yes, (thanks for responding) the issue all started when I tried to install Mokichu's latest bundled drivers which were updated recently. Before posting here I reached out to Mokichu. He was good to respond but was quick to say I should reach out to ASUS to resolve the issue. He can't keep up with every z790 chipset motherboard of course. The issue is a real pain. I hope his next set of drivers resolves the issue. And yes, for the price of this MB, it should just work. You would think that cleaning up the drivers and reinstalling the latest package from ASUS would at least get me back square one, but no luck. mg

Could you please confirm if your current motherboard model is the ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI or the ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI II?
The Realtek Audio Driver versions released for these two models on the official website are different.

We advise against installing unofficial drivers, therefore, please try uninstalling the current driver and installing the one provided on the official website to reevaluate the situation.
If you encounter any abnormalities using the official version, please provide relevant screenshots to help us better understand your issue.

Did you encounter any difficulties during the driver installation?
If so, could you please provide screenshots of the latest Armoury Crate update center and details of the issue you are facing?
Please also try installing the driver by following the guidance in the FAQ I shared earlier, if needed.

i am using asus rog strix e-gaming wifi motherboard and today my sound completely disappeared. It was working just fine yesterday before i shut down the computer. In the settings i see that the device for the audio that i was using is not listed anymore, instead i have a device called spdif interface(realtek usb 2.0 audio) device in it's place, which obviously doesn't produce any sound.

Due to budgetary constraints, my client purchased an XDS510 USB 2 device on eBay. It came with no documentation other than a CD-R with several conflicting files. I was able to get this XDS510 working last year with our custom board on a borrowed PC running CCS3, but I did not take notes on which driver was successful, and now I do not have access to that machine any more. We're now trying out CCSv4 with the XDS100 on our own Window XP machine, but I find it slow and buggy, and would like to try the XDS510 again, with CCS3 and CCSv4, if possible.

My problem is that I can't seem to figure out which drivers to install, since there are about 3 different drivers on the CD-R. If I knew for sure who made this hardware, and which driver was appropriate, then I'd probably be able to get it working. Last year, I struggled with strange error messages and was working with an unproven TMS320 board of my own design, but eventually got it working. If only I had realized that I would of course forget which driver and settings worked, then I would have taken careful notes.

P.S. Another issue is that I "improved" our TMS320VC5506 board by adding pull-ups on the JTAG header, so I cannot even be certain that I didn't make things worse. Obviously, narrowing down the possibilities by removing variables is going to be key. I still have the old boards, though, if that turns out to be the issue.

There is no vendor, though, since this was basically an individual to individual eBay purchase. I'll try to find out whether the seller is still available on eBay (and speaks English or we can find a translator). Much of the documentation was in Chinese, but otherwise looks identical to TI documentation.

If only the price difference were not a couple of orders of magnitude more, then this cloning would be less of an issue. Usually, cloned hardware - especially open hardware (see Microchip PICkit) - is only about $5 cheaper from the clones than from companies that are mainstream. Sorry for the rant. I'll see what I can find out from the source.

Thanks Brian. We've been working to get prices down, and XDS100 is one of the ways. Though not that fast, we have tried to make sure XDS100 is very stable, so I would like to understand what kind of instability you are seeing.

However, if I need to pause, recompile, download the new firmware and run, there's a high probability that CCS will crash or freeze. The more times I repeat the cycle, the more likely it is to wedge. If I disconnect, power-cycle my board, then reconnect for firmware download and execution, then it seems to help a little, slightly reducing the chances of a problem. Even with power-cycling, I still eventually get a freeze or crash.
