STM32F4DISCOVERY Just won't connect

Hi,

Bought this board a year ago. Never was able to connect. Now came back to play with it.

Flashed it via ST-Link.
When it's connected to OS X or Windows XP - nor COM port, nor would /dev/tty.* device would appear.
Do I have to somehow flash bootloader first?

COM driver for XP is installed. ST-Link seems to connect to it. Binary is on the device, it matches the one on file.

What am I missing?

Thanks.

Have you connected the other USB port as well? You need to connect both.

Is that for flashing?

Great! Glad you got it sorted!

For anyone else that finds this thread, there's documentation on flashing and using other boards here: http://www.espruino.com/Other+Boards

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
