A couple of weeks ago I posted that I was having problems with using a Silabs CP2102 as the program download port. I thought maybe that the IDE only worked with FTDI ports. So I also tried the internal comports and they worked fine, but the IDE would not detect any ports with CP2102s.
Today I did what I had to do to get Remy Blanks's Loader.py working on my XP system. Guess what? I had a CP2102 on COM7 and here is the screen capture:-
Going back to the IDE without touching anything and hitting F7 returns the "No Propeller chip found on any COM port" message. Come on Parallax, I haven't heard anything from you guys about this problem but it certainly seems to be a bug in your IDE. Any chance of fixing it?
