Software Won't Connect - Scenario #2 - Bad Software 'Driver' Installed
There is a slim chance (especially with today's newer PC's) that your computer system already had an older incompatible USB driver installed and when the 'Found New Hardware Wizard' appeared during the USB device driver installation process, the outdated driver was used.
If this occurred, you will have to uninstall the USB driver. Please click on the image at the right to access the FTDI Applications Note AN107 Advanced Driver Options technical document and refer to Page 28. For Windows® XP, use the FTClean™ Utility. A link to download the utility is also provided in the applications note on page 28 of the document. For Windows® Vista and Windows® 7, use the approach explained on page 28.
If you are using FTClean™ for Windows® XP, make sure any Daytona Sensors™ system is unplugged from the PC before proceeding. Run FTClean™ to remove all old drivers. Then start over with USB device driver installation as described in the previous section above.
