identity forcing of multiple usb-blasters

When multiple blasters are installed, how does the driver make the determination of which one is -0 and which is -1, etc? Is it based on the order of initial driver installation? My experience...

The boards used on my PC were different than the boards used on my colleague's, so there may be something to that. All should have unique serial numbers, though.

Download FTDI's FT_PROG and plug in the USB-Blaster's one at a time.

Use the Devices->Scan and Parse menu function to read the contents of the FTDI EEPROMs.

That'll help confirm the serial numbers are unique.

Cheers,
