Does it not detect AT90USB162 DFU mode when you plug it in?

If not, do the button press combo to put it into DFU mode

[lenskip]

i have done that, and it still doesn't recognize it

[DJLO]

Does it come up at all to new hardware detection?

What version of Windows are you using?
Are you by chance using a Windows virtual machine on a Mac?
Do you have the FLIP (with the Java runtime) software installed?

i have windows 7 32 bit, i do have flip 3.4.2 and java installed and when i plug it in i get cannot find drivers for AT90USB162 DFU

I have the same board. I thought i would need to put it in DFU mode but as soon as i plugged it in , XP detected the DFU device, i went into flip, loaded the hex and flashed. It is possible you have a bad board, but i suspect you are not putting it into DFU mode properly. I can't help too much more as i'm at the office and obviously don't have my PS3 in front of me

Thats a different story dude

Point the new hardware found to your c:\program files\flip\bin or whatever the flip folder is \bin

Thats your problem

Follow the rest of the guide and you'll be set
