How to get out of SAMBA mode

(SAMBA = SAM Boot Assistant)

• In device manager the brick had a device description Bossa Program Port. It should be LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT.
• Uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it still shows Bossa Program Port.
• So I found the hardware ID of the Bossa Program Port from device manager (USB\VID_03EB&PID_6124).
• Then I went to the c:\Windows\inf directory and searched for that ID.
• That ID appeared in two INF files oem11.inf and oem42.inf.
• oem11.inf has the device description "LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Firmware Update Mode" and oem42.inf has the description "Bossa Program Port".
• So that's why it installed the wrong driver.
