I just got my BX-24 a few days ago, and the original factory program ran on powerup as usual, however when i downloaded the hello_world program i got an internal EEPROM error, "length error". Any ideas on how to solve this? here is the download window text, if it helps: *** Downloading File Writing internal EEPROM Write failed Writing external EEPROM Verifying external EEPROM Verify OK *** Download Error _________________________________________________________________ Instant message in style with MSN Messenger 6.0.

There may indeed be something wrong with the BX24, but it is more probably something with the COM port settings. You might use the Control Panel, Properties of the COM Port, Advanced and turn off the FIFO buffers. You might also fool with the flow control. I sometimes see this in my student lab, but it tends to be a transient thing. The student tries again and all is well. Hope this helps. Peter H Anderson, http://www.phanderson.com/basicx/
