Boost.Software US Card Driver Upgrade / Rollback

There are two parts to the Boost.Software, US Range driver:

(Taking for example the US-101 1 Port RS-232 Device)

  • Card driver: "Brainboxes - Brainboxes - USB2Serial 1xRS-232"
  • Port driver: "Brainboxes RS-232 Serial Port (COM3)"
Recommended Method

If you need to upgrade or roll back the Boost.Software driver, we recommend to completely uninstall the existing drivers first, and then to install the new drivers from fresh. This will restore all settings to factory default. However, if you instead wish to retain your settings, you can use the 'Update Driver' or "Rollback" in Device Manager for upgrading/rolling back the US Card driver.

Upgrading the Boost.Software Driver​

  1. Go to Device Manager and Right Click on the USB2Serial entry (Found under Universal Serial Bus Controllers)

  2. Select Upgrade Driver. This will launch the Found New Hardware Wizard. Follow the on screen instructions.

note

It is only possible to upgrade the Boost.Software driver via the Serial Card entry in Device Manager and not the Serial Port entry. The upgrade process will automatically upgrade the Port driver.
