The parameter is incorrect : unable to install detected ARDUINO UNO driver

Using Arduino Installation & Troubleshooting
#1

HI All ,

Facing an issue while installing usb driver in windows 7 . The board is detected as unknown under other devices . It detects the arduino UNO driver as well.

But while updating the driver it gives an error message :

" Windows found software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install"

it gives additional info as “The parameter is incorrect”.

can anyone please suggest how i might go about fixing this ???

First off ensure the board is connected to a USB 2.0 port JIC you are seeing the USB 3.0 issue.

Next can you post a decent pic of the board around the USB connector and the chip near that.

Win 7 doesnt normally have driver enforement issues but JIC you are seeing that aspect take a look HERE
