[hpsdr] Resurrecting Old Setup

[craig]

Yes, system was powered on.

The LibUSB-Win32 does not show up in Device Manager.

It has: Other Devices —> Unknown Device
That’s a problem.

PowerSDR was down loaded and installed from the web site.

Don’t know about running as administrator. How do I verify that? Not super sharp on Windows.

So far I’ve not been able to see what firm ware is on the boards.

Yes, Hardware, not Harare. Thanks for the support.

You should of course consult the PowerSDR manual.  And GitHUB to ensure that you have a consistent set of firmware for all the boards you have defined to PowerSDR.  I'm sure you mean 'Hardware' and not 'Harare'...
