CDC serial driver for BusPirate v4 on windows 7 64-bits

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Hook BusPirate v4 to your windows 7 64-bits PC
2. See some strange USB probe driver picked up
3. mchpcdc.inf from downloaded package will not install on x64 win7

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
usbser.sys loaded for BusPirate

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
host pc: x64 win7
buspirate: 
Bus Pirate v4
Firmware v6.0-a3
DEVID:0x1019 REVID:0x0003 (24FJ256GB106 A5)


Please provide any additional information below.
I managed to fix this problem by googling. See

All I did was changing VID and PID to what I have in BusPirate and then naming 
it nicely at the end of INF. Voila! I was able to update driver software.

I am not specialist in this area, so I am just telling how I hacked it for 
myself. Maybe you can make better use of this info and implement out-of-box 
installation on win7 x64

I am attaching hacked INF file that I used succesfully

Thanks
