Genuine Arduino Nano - Can't find drivers

Development Tools IDE 1.x
3

If your board is an official Arduino board, the steps below should help resolve the issue:

  1. uninstall the IDE and then install the latest version.
  2. install the board’s package core, https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Cores
  3. Use a good quality data USB cable to connect the board to the computer without anything connected or wired to the board. Do not use USB 3.0 port or USB hub.
    If your board is still not detected, install FTDI driver following https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/4411305694610-Install-or-update-FTDI-drivers
  4. Make sure you select the board and the port it is connected to before uploading a sketch.
  5. If 1-4 above fails to solve it, double tap the reset button fast and check the status of the onboard "L" LED. If the onboard LED fade in and out slowly (pulsating), upload an example sketch (Blink LED) from the IDE to the board.
