![userHead](https://dfimg.dfrobot.com/dfPortrait2.png)
just bought my new firebeetle, but i cant write anything to it no matter what, i tried multiple bords and versions and reinstalled and configured the driver multiple times but no luck, still the same error.
if i run the example blink code with the following libraries used:
http://download.dfrobot.top/FireBeetle/package_esp32_index.json
https://gitee.com/dfrobot/FireBeetle-ESP32/raw/master/FireBeetle-ESP32.inf
i have the firebeetle esp32 -e board selected and the com port is visible and also selected.
if i upload my code i get these errors:

I cant get the board to give me any other output than this. Does anyone know the fix or the right library that i should use ?
Thanks in advance.
What laptop machine are you using? I suggest installing the motive force program on Windows and uploading the board hyperlink furnished in the tutorial. https://blog.spinbot.uk/

Okay so i managed to do it, if anyone encounters this the fix is to uninstal all drivers you might have and install specificaly this (https://dfimg.dfrobot.com/nobody/wiki/0e0d6b3864f7163833ec5d7ad4af7632.EXE) driver make sure you only have this one so it actually gets used, other drivers dont work and it has to be this one. after you are done just install the board library and you are good to go.

Im using and AMD windows 10 machine. i have installed the driver (https://gitee.com/dfrobot/FireBeetle-ESP32/raw/master/FireBeetle-ESP32.inf) and i see the esp32-e in my com devices. But it just gives me the output mentioned above whenever i upload anything to it. Do you have a different driver or board library i could try ? Also i tested this on an Intel based windows 10 and i get the exact same output. what driver and board are you using to get it running ?
