Skunkboard qution

What size is the USB port on the Skunkboard?  The port that's used to flash the Skunkboard.  I think, I need a new cable.

It's a mini USB connector, *not* the same as a micro USB connector that most phones used prior to USB-c.  It's slightly thicker.  Here's the exact part I used on my build:

This cable should work:

I recall having trouble with the GUI thing, although possible not that and gave up as I found the command line more reliable. 

One problem the Skunboard has under Windows 10 is a missing USB driver, which may be related to your problem. If you are using windows 10 and have not already done so use Zadig and install the libusb-win32 (v1.2.6.0) to get the Skunkboard talking to your PC and see if that helps.  You might have to restart after installing for it to work.
