Still no BASIC Stamp Detected?
If you get the error message “No BASIC Stamp Found” but the Run → Identify test shows
a “Yes” in both columns for one of the COM ports, you may need to change a setting to
your FIFO Buffers. This happens occasionally with Microsoft Windows® 98 and XP
users. Make a note of the COM port with the “Yes” messages, and try this:

If you are using a serial port (no USB to serial adaptor), make a note of the COM
ports listed. If one or more of these COM ports do not appear in your BASIC
Stamp Editor's list, make a note of the numbers for each COM port that doesn't
appear in the list now.
If you are using an FTDI USB to Serial adaptor, look for the COM port that
reads FTDI USB to Serial COM…
Repeat the Run → Identify test.
Click the Edit Ports List button and add the missing COM port numbers.
Repeat the Run → Identify test again, this time, the Identification window should
"find" your BASIC Stamp 2.
If you have more than one COM port, try connecting your Board of Education or
BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board to a different COM port and see if Run →
Identify works then.
If you have a second computer, try it on the different computer.
Click on your computer desktop’s Start button.
Select Settings → Control Panel → System → Device Manager → Ports (COM & LPT).
Select the COM port that was noted by the Run → Identify test.
Select Properties → Port Settings → Advanced .
Uncheck the box labeled “Use FIFO Buffers” then click OK .
Click OK as needed to close each window and return to the BASIC Stamp Editor.
Try downloading a program once more.
Click on your computer desktop’s Start button.
Select Settings → Control Panel → System → Hardware → Device Manager → Ports
(COM & LPT).
