I have two Arty S7 boards that are acting very strange. When I plug them in they show up in the device manager as a COM port (one board shows up as two COM ports for some reason), and I can open each board in the Vivado Hardware Manager, but more than half the time I can't open the COM port (using Putty, hyperterm, etc.). I've tried multiple computers, plugging directly into the computer USB port, various cables, etc., but I can't find a pattern or a reliable way to get them both working all the time. It's quite frustrating. Is this any sort of know issue with the Win10 driver or the FT2232 programming? I've seen another thread that talks about reprogramming the FTDI part - is that something I should try? I was corresponding with a Digilent engineer about this but he stopped responding... can anyone help?
