Silhouette Cameo issues (different problems)

Hey guys,

So my wife got a silhouette for xmas, and I have wanted to use it to get back into pep. I have the tamasoft viewer for the cameo, and just for the life of me I cannot get the controller to open. It keeps telling me that it has no communication. Am I missing something completely easy? I have the install disc that came with the cutter, so I have drivers available if needed. I have tried adding it as a new printer to no avail. I had read as many threads as I could ahead of time, and thought I had it down.

Thanks

Dos
 
Did you run the install on the disc before plugging the Cameo usb cord into the computer? If you didn't, windows probably assigned a generic printer driver to it. With it unplugged, try finding it in Device Manager and uninstalling the driver, then running the install disc.
 
Grimm, thank you very much for that. I removed the device and loaded the driver straight from the disc. I then tried my test cutting page and Viola!! success. Thanks again.
