1, try turning the USB lead upside down when plugging into the M5StickC
2, Try a different lead.
3, try a different computer (just to test)
4, follow the removal and install procedure that I have posted in the forums exactly as I have written without skipping steps.
The driver is very fussy and windows is also very fussy when installing and initial configuring the M5StickC and driver.
