Sorry. New user. Getting a "no basic stamps found" error.
I downloaded the USB serial driver onto my computer. I think that I have made the correct connections between my computer and the device.
When I use the identification:
Port: COM3
Device type: blank
Version: blank
Loopback: YES
Echo: NO

Many USB serial adapters are limited to providing serial data lines and do not provide the serial control lines (DTR particularly). These cannot be used for programming a Stamp. The FTDI chip based adapters do work and you will need to get their current driver from their website. If you have a proper adapter, remember that the adapter should not be plugged into the PC until after the driver is installed. Otherwise, you may need to delete the driver and reinstall it properly.
