Well, this is my first APM. So, today I start my little learning curve on how to set it up.
I am having problem loading(running) Mission Planner. I open the folder Mission Planner 1.1.40.
Then I see the green icon with the title "ArdupilotMegaPlanner. I click that, and a little dos window opens and then I see a screen with same green icon open up, but closes in a second or 2.
I have downloaded the usb drivers and the board shows on my device manager.
I downloaded .net 4 and ran that. Restarted it to see if that makes a difference. Nope, still the same.
Any suggestions?
ps- I am running Windows7 on a MacBook Pro i7 with Parallels.

ok, Found out why it does not recognize the file. it shows as txt file when I donwloaded using Firefox.
I redownloaded from MSexplorer now, and its shows as setup file.
Well, been trying for 2 days. No go so far.
Now, i have switched to a HP with Windows XP. I was able to get the Mission Planner running but it is failing to load the board driver. I see the .inf file that I downloaded. but when I try to install new driver and look into the folder, it does not see it.
Now why is this?
