I'd installed nRF Sniffer 0.9.7 today on my Windows XP 32 Bit Professional and it works without problems. (It's the only one old scrapped Windows machine I had left in my office, because running only Linux and some Mac for the last years.)

The nRF Sniffer unfortunately does not currently support Windows XP. See the user guide for supported software and hardware required in Section 1.1 and 1.2.

"Required Software : Windows 7 or later"

Hi,

Windows XP is supported, and should be working (we test with it prior to each release). You mention that there's another JLINK instance which cannot be recognized properly. Have you tried to manually point it to the driver path? Should be "C:\Program Files\Seggger\JLinkOB_CDC*"

Have you tried loading the uart_example for PCA10000 onto the board to see if you get anything at all? ..\Nordic Semiconductor\nRF51 SDK_vX.Y\Nordic\nrf51822\Board\pca10000\uart_example

Best regards Håkon
