The OP does not appear to have the level of computer literacy required
to follow the tutorial example. I am trying to take him/her through
the steps so to achieve a positive outcome as I know there are others
listening to this forum in similar situation.
Your interjection is without substance. It is not constructive.
Perhaps it is appropriate for you to heed your own advice *never* do
this again so as to save yourself embarrassment in the future :)
Kind regards
Jaya

Hello,
Where does it say "cannot find a program called COM8"?
I suggest you do some homework on interpreting Windows exit codes.
Perhaps Andrew Barney can help you with this.
Exit code 2 in Windows expands to "the system cannot find the file
specified".
It appears from your transcript that SILL failed to open COM8. I
would not blame SILL as it seems Windows could not find COM8 on your
system!
It looks like you are blindly copying the COM8 example in my tutorial
page. If you read fully, you will note that you have to first find
out what port your target is connected to on your system.
What I said stands. SILL *never* tells you it cannot find a program.
Jaya

Hello,
Sorry, you are not being coherent. Cut and paste the transcript.
SILL *never* tells you it cannot find a program. Either you have a
virus or you are very unfamiliar with using the CMD shell interface.
Good luck.

David,
You should start a "DOS Prompt" window (CMD.EXE) and run SILL.EXE as
per the transcripts on my tutorial page.
If you run by clicking on it from Windows Explorer, XP creates the DOS
Prompt window for you and runs SILL.EXE but closes this window as soon
as it exits.
You will not be able to see the transcript ... unless you have
photographic memory and can capture the screen in 250 ms you refer to!
Regards,
Jaya

I also hava a on-chip loader for LPC that enables downloading and
running programs from (on-chip) memory (FLASH or SRAM) by simply copy
and paste of Intel format hex load files onto the window of a terminal
emulator like Hyperterm or Minicom.
The the program to check a target and install this loader is also
worth looking at. These can be found at:
Eric, did you do the encryption/decryption yourself ??
Or is this part of LPCISP ?? Is it LPCISP, or is it the
lpc2isp which has a yahoo group ?
Thanks,
boB
----------------------
It is the LPC2ISP, available from the yahoogroup. I just added my own
extremely simplistic encryption that at least prevents direct disassembly of
the hex file.
