Pulling my hair out

Post by z3pr68138 »

I'm at a total loose. My LCD worked great with XP. I can't get this damn thing figured out. I'm running Windows 7 Home 64 bit. My display is a cheapie I bought on Ebay. Connects to USB pins on the motherboard.

We feel for you! There's no need for the big bold italic chars :shock:

Is it a virtual com port? Driver installed ok for it?
Try a different port or fetch the good one from Device manager applet in windows.

I have no idea how to do any of what you just said. I'm no computer wizard by any means. Sure, I built this one, but that simply putting it together. You guys are way past my level
