    To my embarrassment, I accidentally found out that the driver is installed when the PC is rebooted with the development board switched on and connected to a USB port.

Apologies, I was too hasty in my reply. In 'Control Panel' -> 'Printers and Devices' -> 'Bluetooth and Devices', under 'USB Blaster', it is mentioned that the 'Driver is unavailable'
Does anyone know where to download the driver?
