Question: How to install PSoC Programmer and drivers on Windows 8?

Answer:

Kindly follow this procedure to program your PSoC device with Windows 8 OS:-

1)      Upgrade your Programmer to 3.17 from the link “http://www.cypress.com/?rID=38050&source=header”.

2)      This step is based on the type of OS:-

a.      If your Windows is 32 bit then download “drivers_32bit.zip” fille in your computer. Unzip this file and copy folder “drivers” at location “C:\Program Files\Cypress\Programmer\3.17\”.

b.      If your Windows is 64 bit then download “drivers_64bit.zip” fille in your computer. Unzip this file and copy folder “drivers” at location “C:\Program Files (x86)\Cypress\Programmer\3.17\”.

3)      Go inside the folder “drivers” which you have copied and run the “driver.bat” file.

4)      Plug-in MiniProg3 in the USB port of the PC, you should be able to see it in device manager.

5)      And you will be able to program you devices now.
