Windows 7 Driver Notes
----------------------
Windows 10, Linux, and Mac will all support the Pico CDC/ACM USB serial port
automatically. However, Windows 7 may not include the proper driver and
therefore no detect the Pico for automatic uploads or the Serial Monitor.
For Windows 7, if this occurs, you can use `Zadig <https://zadig.akeo.ie/>`
to install the appropriate driver. Select the USB ID of ``2E8A`` and use
the ``USB Serial (CDC)`` driver.
