This surely looks like a awesome uC, I had a look here at the Netherlands and they sell it for about 100eu. But nowadays a RPI4 goes for about 80eu as well. And last friday I bought a NVIDIA Jetson for a (don;t get shocked) 200eu. I think this has all to do with the current demand for chips or so cause the prices are sky high.

Nevertheless nice video!

Grtz,
Ray

By the way, congratulations on attaining the rank of "Illustrious Member" which I just noticed.

Anything seems possible when you don't know what you're talking about.

Not from me, I'm saving up for a GIGA 🙂

  On the Arduino Blog, it's where Arduino makes all of their announcements.

@dronebot-workshop Sorry, I hardly ever look at the site and certainly not the blog. Too much stuff, not enough time. Soon to have a lot less time once I get my dog and ATV.

Wondering of someone could provide some suggestions. So far, I've been unable to connect my Giga R1 to my 64-bit Windows 7 workshop computer. After installing the board from the Boards manager, the COM port is not showing up correctly in Windows. The Device Manager shows it as "Other devices / Giga" (with a yellow exclamation mark) and reports no driver installed.

Tried both the v1.8.19 and 2.04 IDEs, uninstalling/installing a few times, different USB ports, searching for new hardware. Works fine on my office Windows 10 computer, but that's not the one I use in my workshop.

@kdlaun Just a wild guess, but maybe it's a new device, and Win 7 is ancient. Just upgrade to Win 11 and that should fix it.

Yes, I'm painfully aware of that. Plans for a new machine and bigger monitor are in the future, but for now, I'm trying to avoid a 75m trip between the house and the shop every time I need to change code.

@kdlaun Have you tried to copy the driver from the working PC to the not working?
