This allows you set the driver for the device to be WinUSB which is usually
required to make it work if you're having problems
With Zaidg, you may need to run it as administrator and if your device is
plugged in but you cannot see it, use the Menu: Options -> List All Devices
You must also make sure you are using the latest libusb-1.0.dll supplied
with cgminer (not the libusbx version)

When mining on linux, but not using 'sudo' and not logged into 'root' you
may get a USB priviledge error (-3), so you may also need to do the following:
Create /etc/udev/rules.d/01-cgminer.rules
With:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6014", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="1fc9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0003", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
And also:
sudo usermod -G plugdev -a `whoami`
Then reboot ...
If your linux distro doesn't have the 'plugdev' group, you can create it like:
sudo groupadd plugdev

There is a hidden option in cgminer to dump out a lot of information
about USB that will help the developers to assist you if you are having
problems:
