Just got my first moonlander 2 to mess around with and have run into a problem I can't seem to get around

Failed to sanity check in lowl-vcom.c windows_usb_get_string():508 is the error that keeps popping up.

any thoughts?

Sounds like some windows/usb driver incompatibility...what version of windows are you running, and are you using the latest silicon labs USB driver?

I am running windows ten and have reloaded the drivers. I actually had it working for about a day or so but then it started happening again. Any thoughts?

sorry to say but ive had so many issues with mine..
windows 10 is not happy with the way they communicate through usb.

just get a cheap raspberry pi and use that with minera.. then have it reboot every few hours and they restart automatically..

Gotcha, no real experience with raspberry pi. Can you point me in a direction for research/purchase advice, thanks for the help.
