I've had an Arduino UNO running for some time at my desk as a temperature logger. Just received a Mega 2560 and am wondering if I can run both at the same time? The Mega isn't showing up with a dedicated COM port when I plug it in, so I'm thinking the answer might be 'NO'?
Why isn't the Mega showing up as a COM port? Something is not right there.
It came out of the box and got plugged in. Windows XP wanted to look for something on the web, so I let it, but it came back with nothing. Perhaps I went about that initial step the wrong way?
Problem found to be that I'd missed the step regarding driver installation for the Mega.
That would do it 8)
