Re: FTDI driver installation problems

I found a similar problem in an earlier thread, but not really a solution...

I am trying to install the FTDI FT232BM VCP driver on a Windows 98 system. The system won't "pick up" the driver. It recognizes the USB device (unknown) when I plug it in. It then insists on automatically attaching its own USB driver. I can tell it to "update driver" and point it to the directory where the FTDI driver is located. However, it insists that it knows better (the best driver is already installed) and won't update.

I've tried removing the "unknown device" and doing it over, no change...

Any ideas? [FWIW, I am currently using the FTDI FT232BM without an EEPROM.] 

Why don't you send these question to Mr keith dingwall from
FTDI ? He's really helpful and has accumulated quite a lot of knowledge ?
