I am very frustrated since I can't even get started with connecting my Alexmos. Many people seem to have the same issue as I - which is after the Silicon labs driver has been installed, the board does not connect, and the USB is still labelled "unknown device" in the device manager. I tried different computers, and many different USB cables, shielded and non-shielded.
Also, the Silicon labs chip get extremely hot when the USB is connected, smells kind of funky and burns my finger when I touch it. Is this normal?
I should also mention that I purchased the board through a legitimate Alexmos dealer, so the board should be legit.
