+madman Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Just checking what a skunkboard does? How much are they worth etc? A Skunkboard omits an odor that will counteract the Jag fumes, keeping you safe from talking about unharnessed POWAH and Tomb Raider on the Jag CD. They're worth about $50, but the Skunk spray refills will cost about $25/ea. It's the razor blade model, sell the razors cheap, mark up the blades. Etc. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacey Invader Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 It "omits" an odor. I had a glade air freshened that did that. The effect was incredibly neutral. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hey does anyone know where to find the skunkboard drivers right now? Trying to get my skunk working on Windows 10 tonight and neither the Harmlesslion nor ItIt websites that came with the skunk are loading... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Here are the Skunk USB drivers Driver.zip SkunkUSBDRIVER.zip Edit: I found these in a folder on an external hard drive labeled Skunkboard resources. No idea how to set them up except what's in the brief guide I made here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Gotta disable driver signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) Gotta disable driver signing. Thanks, I downloaded the "step by step" instructions to do that that were put up on another skunk thread recently. Going to give it another go tonight. Just so they are in the same place I'll attach them. So the last step is "restart and install drivers." Just so i'm set up for success when I attempt this later, which file is the installer in each folder? Or if I plug the skunk in via USB will the computer auto detect them? Just wondering since there are a number of innocuous looking files in each driver folder (Driver, SkunkUSBDriver) Edited November 24, 2015 by travistouchdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, i've downloaded the drivers and disabled driver signing, and no luck getting any of the driver files to install. Might try plugging in the skunk board tonight and seeing if the system might detect the drivers. Anyone know what file I should be looking to click on for Windows 10? Thanks, would really like to start using the Skunk again now that I have another PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Should look like this in w10: Installed from the Driver folder in this zip: SkunkBoard.zip *The Jaguar has to be powered on, with the skunkboard in, and the USB cable connected.

Rick Dangerous Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it. Sorry for all these "gee whiz how do I do this" posts. The people in the ST forum are about to get a lot more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Dangerous Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Gotta disable driver signing. Can you do this just once and be all set, or do you specifically have to do it when you boot up before installing the drivers? Finally have time to skunk it tonight.

JagChris Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Wow with all the Skunkboards that have been sold through the batches 1-3 and the sillyventure run there's still users out there clamoring for them. Amazing. That's quite a bit of Jaguar users out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing. That's quite a bit of Jaguar users out there. Sales don't always equate to users. I'm sure many of them are sitting on shelves as collection pieces, collecting nice coats of dust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarian63 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Got mine awhile back just need time to set it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 No luck. Plugged in skunk, powered on Jag, and device didn't show. I clicked on every file in the driver folder and couldn't get the drivers to install. Could not send ABS or ROM's to skunk via JIFFI (probably because of drivers.) How do I go about getting these drivers installed? I don't recall it being this hard last time.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 It'll look like that in Device Manager, not the Explorer view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope they sure don't. But even guessing and knocking off the entire run of Sillyventure to count as the doubles/triples people own that's still quite a bit of users.

Rick Dangerous Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 It'll look like that in Device Manager, not the Explorer view. I'll give it a whirl. Went into device manager the other night but didn't see anything under USB, just a switch regarding USB notifications or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Those are older versions of the drivers... the last release I built from was signed and didn't require you to disable driver signing, at least on Win7-64 bit. Looks like it was built on libusb-win32-bin-1.2.0.0 (first signed version). This is the last release pack - the page will be back up soon enough. Includes driver, source, and documentation. Docs don't cover 10 specifically, and I don't know if this version of libUSB is compatible with it... 7 is the latest I tested it. You may be able to install a newer version of libUSB if this doesn't work, there's nothing customized about the Skunkboard driver but the name. (And for Linux it was just the libUSB driver used, nothing customized). I started here, but it seems to be superseded now: http://sourceforge.net/p/libusb-win32/wiki/Home/ For creating the files, there is an "inf-wizard" in the libUSB-Win32 package that I used. The VID/PID of the Skunkboard is just that of the Cypress USB controller: 04B4 / 7200 Remove old drivers before installing these ones. SkunkBoard.zip Good luck. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily...I don't think I ever figured out how to install them. Lol..... I really need to get my skunk running soon, especially with the ST port thread up and running. Thanks Tursi! If I can't figure this out this time i'll be back begging for a step by step with pictures... Jiffi seems easy enough I just can't seem to figure out how to INSTALL the drivers. I see the files there but clicking on them always bring up a "what program do you want to use to open this" box.. Will try again tonight.

Tursi Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 There's a step-by-step with pictures in the manual for Windows 7. But just follow the instructions in the manual, you aren't supposed to click on the driver files themselves. Rather you sort of point Windows at them. If you need step-by-step pics for a version other than 7 I can fake it, but I can't test that they work as I don't have a Jaguar anywhere near me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
