ok so iv been messing around trying to get an Icarus Board to work (pretty new to FPGA) it gets detected when i use the driver Prolific and cgminer then tell me i need to install WinUSB driver i then install WinUSB driver and run cgminer again and it then says no Device found, i check Device manager and its there as
USB-Serial Controller D

anyone got any ideas??? its given me a headache trying to figure this out (i also really really hate anything to do with command line)

ok with driver PL2303_prolific_driverinstall_v1.8.0 installed i get an error with cgminer 3.3.0

USB init,open device failed, err-12 you need to install a WinUSB driver for - ICA device 2:3

if i change the driver to winusb then i get no device detected
