    Hello,

    I pulled the board out of the bag and plugged it into my computer via USB cable after following the setup guide and installing FTDI drivers.

    The computer showed no signs of registration or device activity and there are absolutely no lights on the board.

    I believe the board is dead. Help!

    You don’t mention a power supply? TinyG needs the motor power supply even to communicate with the PC. Do the LEDs blink when turning power on?

    Yes, he forgot to power it 🙂 The board is working fine.
