As you can see, the more details around a problem are presented, the better and faster a solution can be found. Do you remember how this thread started? [blue]I finally made a USB Interface for my SX20 SS chip using the FTDI232BM chip. I plug it in, the SX powers up from the USB 5V supply and can be programmed by the SXKey. But nothing happens on the PC. Windows XP doesn't start saying that some new device has been connected. I double checked all SMT connections with a magnifying glass, nothing seems to be wrong. Now what?[/blue] I think you agree with me that this is not the kind of information that really helps others helping you to solve your problem. Please don't be offended by my post - it is a well-meant message to all forum members. A detailed problem description saves all of us valuable time, including yourself because you'll get a solution faster. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=90573#m91393 Need assistance?
