I had troubles with updating my Netduino on Windows 8 x64 and ended up shorting the gold dot and 3v to reflash the firmware. I can't seem to do anything with it now. When I plug it in with the reset switch down, then select the GPS Camera Detect driver, it installs but says that the device can't start (code 10). Of course from there I can't do anything else. Is there anything else I can try to even get it a COM port to update with Sam-ba or is that enough info to indicate that it's fried?
I should also point out that this is on multiple USB ports, and not through a USB hub. Also, I find it interesting that Device Manager shows the hardware ID as USBDEVICE_DESCRIPTOR_FAILURE. Maybe that's normal before the driver is installed though...
