Ok so fresh board. plugged it in, and let windows search for the drivers. Nothing. Manual check for updates -> Nothing. So apparently g_multi unlike g_serial, or g_ether is not detected by windows during a manual update.
Then going to BBB-drive\Drivers\Windows\ I copied the bone_D64.exe driver to my desktop. Then executed the drivers installer. There are 4 popups that you must click on the "install" button. Afterwards, I reset the board by pressing the power button, which is farleft of the ethernet jack, with the ethernet jack pointed down. Once the board came back up. I opened puTTY, put in 192.168.7.2 for the IP, hit enter. username debian, password temppwd.
