on radino32
- After entering the Bootloader windows will detect the new device.
- Use the zadig driver installation tool under "%ARDUINO_APPDATA_FOLDER%/hardware/ICT_Boards/stm32l1/driver/win" to install drivers for the STM32 Bootloader.
- Make sure within the installation tool "libusbK (v3.0.7.0)" is selected.
install virtual com port
- st offers drivers for the stm32s virtual com port on their website http://www.st.com. Find them by searching for virtual com port driver

wrong driver with Windows 7
- Windows 7 usually installs the wrong driver for radino32 automatically - this guide shows how to remove the wrong driver and install the right one.
Uninstall wrong driver
- Open the device manager
- Within section USB-Controller look for STM Device in DFU Mode
- If you formerly used another device from ST and installed a driver package, the device STM32_BOOTLOADER within another section might be the one to look for.
- Right-click on that entry and choose Uninstall
- In the upcoming window check the box and click OK
- Now disconnect the radino32 from your PC (remove the USB connection)

- Click on the link to cancel driver-installation
- and confirm
- Windows driver installation was cancelled
Install new driver
- Use the zadig driver installation tool under "%ARDUINO_APPDATA_FOLDER%/hardware/ICT_Boards/stm32l1/driver/win" to install drivers for the STM32 Bootloader.
- Make sure within the installation tool "libusbK (v3.0.7.0)" is selected.
- Now run zadig driver installation to install radino32 driver
- The installer recognizes the STM32 BOOTLOADER - now select libusbK and run Install Driver
- The device-manager now shows your radino32 as STM32 BOOTLOADER within section libusbK USB Devices
- The radino32 driver is now installed successfully on Windows 7
