Furious doesn't find my com-ports - GSM-Forum

James_S · 09-14-2006, 04:01

In the list of the available com-ports, theres many missing:

COM3 (FTDI cable)
COM4 (FTDI cable)
COM5 (Furious Gold driver)

The only it finds is COM1 (physicle), 1 of 2 USTII-ports, and NSDongle box.

Why doesn't it find itself or other FTDI devices?

can you tell exactly how you installed the furious gold?

**FuriouS TeaM** · 09-14-2006, 15:55

And be sure you installed drivers from support area. Don't use any other FTDI drivers like cruiser cable etc... Use only FuriousGold.

I installed the furious drivers, but when i got prompted that a newer file already existed, i selected NO to overwrite it, since that would mess up every other device.

Last time i installed older drivers than then the ones at ftdi.com, that resulted in blue screen everytime a ftdi device are accessed. What version of the ftdi drivers does furious use?

Why isn't it possible to use updated drivers with furious?

Updated drivers u can get from us only so use ones from our site ONLY.

But they are not updated...

This is a FTDI device right? Then it should use FTDI drivers which is available here: http://www.ftdichip.com/

I guess you are using old FTDI drivers, when making drivers for furious.

In other words, i can't use furious, because your software does not support new ftdi drivers, like all other software supports.

Old drivers have bugs, like the bluescreen issue i mentioned.

did you get this fixed?

**FuriouS TeaM** · 09-20-2006, 12:37

simply drivers from support area. For sure this is tested and working.
