Hello everyone,
I have a problem: I have some ESP8266 with WLED in operation, I have now got myself ESP32-C3 super mini. I have 2 pieces and both cause the same problem. If I connect it to the PC via USB, you log in, i can see it in the device manager as a universal serial device, after 2-3s log out with an acoustic USB message. and logs in softly again, only to disappear again after 2-3s. both do the same thing. I tried different USB cables, all of them were definitive data cables. Pressing and holding the boot button didn’t help either. Has anyone seen this before, what am I doing wrong? I wanted to use the web installer
If it’s definitely not the data cable, then either your computer has the wrong drivers for the serial chip on the ESP or some other process running on the PC is conflicting.
The solution: press and hold the boot button when switching on, then establish the connection and start flashing, keeping the button pressed the whole time.
