Thanks Derek,
I tried using Admin privileges and that did not make a difference. I believe
all the ports on my machine are USB3 however I’m not sure they use exactly the
same hardware. In any event I tried another one and it did make a difference.
I now get the message below regarding the need to run uhd_images_downloader. I
ran it (also below) and it indicates it needs me to specify a device however I
have not figured out the correct way to do that. Note: All the images appear
to be already on the machine in the share/uhd/images directory. Also as you
see below the message states to run
C:\ProgramFiles\UHD\lib\utils\uhd_images_dowloader.py. My installation is on
the D: drive not the C: drive and the downloader appears to be an .exe file in
the GNURadio-3.7\bin file. I don’t know if something is looking for code in
the wrong places or not.
D:\Program Files\GNURadio-3.7\bin>uhd_find_devices
Win32; Microsoft Visual C++ version 14.0; Boost_106000;
UHD_003.009.003-0-unknown
UHD Warning:

Thanks again,

Hello Dave,
Thanks for posting again. I don't know if anyone else has tried the B100 using
the Windows UHD+GNU Radio binaries. Are you connected to a USB 2 only port or
to a USB 3 port? I would try a dedicated USB 2 port if possible.
Also, I don't believe that permissions issues exist to the same degree on
Windows, but can you try running uhd_find_devices in an administrator prompt?
Regards,
Derek

I am trying to install GNURadio on a Windows 7, 64 bit machine for use with a
Ettus B100 usrp. I used the gnuradio_3.7.9.2_win64 installer referenced on
the GNURadio installation guide.
When I run uhd_find_devices I get the following:
D:\Program Files\GNURadio-3.7\bin>uhd_find_devices
Win32; Microsoft Visual C++ version 14.0; Boost_106000;
UHD_003.009.003-0-unknown
No UHD Devices Found
When I look in my device manager I do see a USRPs device show as “Ettus
Research LCC B100”
I posted this issue last week on the USRP discussion list and was advised to
make sure I had only one instance of UHD. I discovered I had incorrectly
installed gnuradio using the installer mentioned above and also installed UHD
using the installer on the ETTUS website not realizing the GNU radio installer
took care of both. I uninstalled GNU radio and uhd and removed everything I
could find for both. I then re-ran the gnuradio_3.7.9.2_win64 installer. I
still have exactly the same problem shown above with the inability to find the
device.
Note: I can successfully use gnuradio and the USRP device on this same
computer using the LiveUSB image thus I don’t believe there are any hardware
issues.
Can anyone provide me more tips on how to troubleshoot my installation?
Thanks,
Dave
