I had a problem with my core drivers for the host not installing (so you can teather the BBB to a desktop via USB to miniUSB on the BBB). It just came up with red X's every time.
There are a lot of "fixes" out there that are pretty flakey so I thought I'd post the most linear path I found. Windows now comes in 32-bit and true 64-bit versions. I'll save you the time and aggravation on this that find out first if your OS is 32 or 64 bit. Download the appropriate flavor of the BBB drivers from here (official site): http://beagleboard.org/static/beaglebone/latest/README.htm The problem if its not installing at all is that Windows REQUIRES driver signing by default. Hit <win> X and select "Command Prompt (admin)" and type the following: bcdedit /set testsigning on Now its critical to understand what this does; it PERMANENTLY sets the default on your box to prompt you if its OK to use an unsigned driver. Since it prompts every time, I believe it secure. A lot of other procedures take a lot of time and frankly don't work on my Win 64 machine (burned up hours on it :( The Beagleboard core drivers are unsigned so make sure you get them from a trustable web site. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
