Hello Pepe,

the V 1.0 Programmer (see CD Lable) works only with 32-bit Systems (Vista & Win7).
The new version V 2.0 works mith 64-bit.
The old programmer V 1.0, you need to reprogram the factory settings.
Then you can use the original driver.

See AN144 and use the CP210xSetIDs.exe to reprogram.

VID, PID and divece string see attachemend..

Best regards,

Ulli
