Trying arduino for the first time and have a seeeduino nano and grove led strip (10) as a test project.
However, when I plug this in to Windows 11, it shows in device manager under ‘Other Devices’ correctly identified as ‘Seeeduino Nano’, but is disabled as there is no driver.
I have tried all the usual things such as windows update, installed the Arduino IDE with board manager update etc and it’s still not finding a driver. I’ve also downloaded the driver mentioned in this post - Seeeduino V4.2 not recognised in windows 10 - however Windows doesn’t recognise it as being valid for the device.
I’m able to successfully connect and upload a sketch using my Mac, so I know the board works - but I need to be able to use it on Windows.
Hi,
This problem is unknown, I have encountered similar problems several times, but it can be uploaded after downloading the Seeeduino driver. Can you try it on someone else’s windows computer?
Hi there,
I could confirm, the Seeeduino Nano don’t work under W11/Arduino IDE 2.1.0. I received a new PC with W11 recently so I needed to reinstall everything and copy all of my backup’d files back. I used the same Nano board under W10/Arduino IDE 2.1.0 with no issue. However I use in more projects the Nano boards, so I needed to resolve this issue and the solution? Simply I installed the latest old version of Arduino IDE of v1.8.19 which seems paired with a proper Seeeduino USB driver, BUT it’s works with the old Arduino IDE only!
If it’s necessary I can send screenshots. I try to install Seeeduino Nano USB driver, but never succseeded. I’m also try to install from FTDI the FTDI CP210x driver but also no joy, so I have no other choice (at the moment) to keep both versions of Arduino IDE, use the old version for Seeeduino Nano and the 2.1.0 version for any other my boards. (have old Digilent ChipKit uC32, ChipKit Max32, some ESP32 & ESP2866, Arduino Micro, Arduino Mega 2560)
Hi,
We have tested Seeeduino Nano on a new Windows 11 computer with Arduino IDE 2.3.2. After installing the driver, it works fine. Please follow the steps here to install the driver (Please download the file in “For Seeeduino v4.3” section):
