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

Hi all:
ingineer_74 here...

I haven't been on this thread since Friday evening...looks like there has been a lot of activity/progress since then.

I was also able to get my board to sort of work and open up the COM port and get Windows to "see" the Arduino board. However, when I get into the IDE and try to upload the Blink Sketch, it hangs and attempts to load the Sketch 10 times with no success. (see attached verbose text file that was saved and Device Manager and Hardware IDs)

Any ideas? I think my board has been damaged...what is interesting is the Green and L Yellow/Amber LED stay lit when plugging in the USB cable and also when I hit the Reset button.

I'll look at some of the previous posts here to see if there may be something there that may help with my issue.
