Default No chip burner drivers

So I got the Phoenix Flash finally installed and activated. Now the chip burner will not work because my VISTA 32 bit computer cannot find the driver for the chip burner.

Any thoughts.

Default finally got burner to work

So, it is now after midnight, and I finally got the necessary drivers installed on my computer. I must say, the procedure for installing the Phoenix Flash software and associated drivers is not entirely intuitive. I haven't been that deep in the windows system menus in quite a long time.

I found and downloaded USB drivers on the PHP website. Then I had to find the .exe file for the driver, (at this point, I don't remember where I actually found it), ran it as "administrator", restarted the computer, opened Phoenix Flash, plugged in the chip burner, and it finally allowed me to send the registration information.

I now have six tunes burned on my chip, and tomorrow, I will fight with the PCM install.

A set of instructions in the box would have been helpful. I did find the FU quick start guide, but only through a Google search for FU burner drivers. I'm glad I did not power up the burner before sliding the chip inside, as that seems to be pretty important according to the FU guide.

Hopefully, the new tunes will give me something to smile about come tomorrow afternoon.
