- and install only the "debugging tools for Windows".
Install path is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Debuggers\x86\usbview.exe
There's also an x64 one but it's still under Program Files x86:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Debuggers\x64\usbview.exe
Note on DigiX:
https://digistump.com/wiki/digix/tutorials/programming
Bootloader is SAM-BA with VID/PID 03EB/6124
Native USB mode is VID/PID 2341/003E
However DigiX appears with VID 0x16D0 and PID 0x078A
From http://digistump.com/board/index.php?topic=1185.20
VID : PID
03EB:6124 Atmel: SAM-BA activated device
2341:003E Arduino DUE native PORT selected, sketch is running
16d0:078a DigiX board selected, sketch is running
Now open Device Manager > Ports (COM & LPT).
It shows "Digistump DigiX (COM6)".
But since the Arduino IDE expects COM3, change it: device manager > Ports > DigiX (COM6) > Properties > Port Settings > Advanced > … won't do COM3 says "in use" (by whom).
Nevermind, change IDE to match COM6: Arduino 1.6.5 > Tools > Port > COM6.
Note by default the Arduino IDE expects 9600 bauds so make sure the sketch inits with this as early as possible: Serial.begin(9600);
