nRF51-DK no MBED microcontrollers were found

Following http://developer.mbed.org/handbook/SerialPC, I'm having an error message installing the MBED Serial Port Driver from file "mbedWinSerial_16466.exe". When I run the install program I get a message "The driver could not be installed.No MBED microcontrollers were found".

I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.

Any help?

Is your nRF51-DK running the J-Link interface firmware or is it running the mbed CMSIS-DAP interface firmware? If it is running the mbed firmware then when the device is plugged into your Windows machine you will see a drive named "MBED" mounted.

How to determinate current firmware?

How to configuration J-Link firmware or CMSIS-DAP interface firmware? It is possible to only JTAG Emulator? I have no emulator.

Please Let'me know how to this?

Had the same problem, device was enumerated as JLINK instead of MBED. Had to do a firmware update: https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/Nordic-nRF51-Dongle
