jeetnbe Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Hi, I have a bought a Sure LCDSmartie kit (http://store3.sure-electronics.com/de-lp14112) and installed latest WIN10 CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers but AIDA keeps telling me device not found for LCDSmartie or Sure. What COM port uses AIDA by default? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 AIDA64 doesn't use a fixed COM port, but instead it detects which COM port is allocated by the Sure LCD. But maybe with your device it fails to work for some reason. Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> System Debug --> USB Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first. Thanks, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually recommend against using the degree character simply because it takes precious space away from useful readings. If you have a 4x20 LCD, it's only 80 characters to display something useful. I wouldn't waste any characters on a degree character 2) Same issue as #1: alphanumeric LCDs should be used to display vital information, not just static labels.
