What can I do to solve this issue. I've installed the latest versions of the viewer and deamon. Kasper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photron Posted April 30, 2013 at 08:41 AM Share Posted April 30, 2013 at 08:41 AM On Windows 8 the Brick Daemon and Brick Viewer installers don't install any drivers, that's correct. There are two reasons for this: 1. The drivers aren't signed and Windows 8 doesn't allow to installed unsigned driver by default. 2. Windows 8 can auto detect a Brick and install it's own driver for it. You don't need the drivers that come with Brick Daemon and Brick Viewer on Windows 8. If you connect a Master Brick (with a version 2 firmware) to USB, it'll show up as "Master Brick" in the USB devices category in the device manager. Now brickd should be able to find it and a connected brickv should show it. If a Brick is in bootloader mode then Windows 8 will auto detect it as a serial port named "GPS Camera Detect". This serial port can then be selected in brickv for flashing. Doesn't it work for you as described? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
