First Arduino

Hi guys, I`m new here and I just bought my first arduino Nano.
I was trying to comunicate it with my computer, to put a program in it, but I failed on that. :blush:
There is any tip that you can give? Something that helps me with that little problem?

Thanks a lot. :slight_smile:

Did you get the FTDI drivers installed ok?
Did you get the cable plugged in okay?
Did you select the correct board and COM port under the Tools menu bar?

Actually thats my problem...
The cable is correctly plugged, but the rx and tx led doesn`t blink as its supposed to and
I cant chose the COM Port, only the board...
How am I supposed to install those drivers? I installed the arduino program and nothing more...

I installed the arduino program and nothing more...

When you first plug the board into the PC, the PC will ask about driver installation. I'm sure it's covered in the installation instructions.

Find driver to go with your system.

You won't get far until your system recognizes the USB being connected.

Where can I find those driver, if the computer doesn`t recognized it when I plug the board?

Sorry for this dumb questions...
