Think for yourself
I know, but, the question is that will it recognize my device?
I'm starting to think that whoever sold me this sold me a broken device.
The LED is on, but all my comps immediately say that they can't install win usb on it.

Reboot and try again.  It is Windoze after all Smiley  I had the same issue intermittently.

Make sure you have local administrator rights on the account your logging in with for the install.

Takes 30 seconds to download and try it, what have you got to lose?

Using Cgminer 3.7.2.
I'm using windows 7.
I tried to use Zadig, but installing win usb took so long, it aborted.
Was like new on Amazon. Bought for 6.00$

Think for yourself
1.  What version of CGMiner are you using?

2.  Are you using Windoze?

3.  If you are using Windoze, did you follow the instructions in the readme on installing the WinUSB driver?

Eh, I wouldn't bother if I were you but try bfgminer. It used to recognize them automatically I think for me back in the day.
