Hi,

Im new to arduino and i recently bought a clone. (Improved Version UNO R3 ATMEGA328P Board Arduino Compatible #03145172)

But whenever I put it in my phone or computer it says "unknown vendor" and then "couldn't load..." it can't even find it on the computer.

But when its plugged in the L-led blinks so it does get power.

Link to product:

Anyone that can help me?

That clone uses the CH340 USB chip so you probably need to install the driver for it. You can download the drivers from http://www.wch.cn/download/CH341SER_EXE.html.
