    .Hi again

    By my mistake  i gave you wrong information   about  152 NUCLEO i have in my desk and Not for discovery board!!

    In discovery case  I just checked the schematic  and the most posible is to have malfuction is the D1 diode.

    Sorry  for the dissruption!

    Hello

    Check your PC usb ports if work normaly.

    Remove JP5 and see if your  computer recognizes the stlink

    If not,  check D2 shotky diode

    In case is not working (D2) you did not just touch the +5v pin to ground.

    replace it  (can use temporarily an ordinary silicon diode) and see if the stlink works.

    regards

    I forgot to write that you have also the option to feed the board from VIN  pin. Read the manual about the voltage you must provide.
