Arduino Driver Install "A service installation section in this INF is invalid."

Hello kprims and thanks for the suggestions. I mean what's the worst that I can do--break a broken board?

I would like to try the procedure using FLIP first, however the link that he gives for the FLIP app is not valid. When I click on http://www.atmel.com/tools/FLIP.aspx it takes me to https://www.microchip.com/.
I've tried searching the web and can't seem to find it. Can someone point me to FLIP?

The procedure from instructables uses point to point wiring and I don't have the female to female wires to make those connections.

So if I can find the FLIP app, I could try that. If someone could point to where I could get it I would appreciate it. Thanks.

John
