Thank you in advance.
It sounds like you do not have libusb installed (which PyUSB needs). I have 2 suggestions: 1) Try under Linux - this may not be an option for you but I've had success with a Ubuntu Live CD with PyUSB. This stuff is *way* easier under Linux. Ubuntu actually has PyUSB as an apt-get'able package. 2) Under Windows you need to install the driver, and the driver needs to be for the specific device you are using. This installation is not as easy as Linux which just works. It isn't difficult under Windows, just not as trivial as Linux. I went the Linux route first before embarking on Windows to make sure my code worked (and that I understood how it works under Windows). There was a post within the last 2 weeks (maybe even week) with responses on how to handle suggestion #2 and they explain it far better than I just did! So check the archives. Good luck!
