I've got a strange problem. I'm trying to move some code over from IAR Kickstart (where I developed it) to Crossworks (where I need to show it working, for various reasons). The debugger I'm using is the ez430; the target is a TI MSP430F2012 target board soldered to a larger circuit. I can build fine, but if I click "build and debug" I get various problems; either it pretends to run but really just sits there, or it says it couldn't run to breakpoint (no breakpoints are set). Verify usually fails. I've tried it on a bare T2012 board with nothing attached, and using a trivial piece of code that just blinks the LED. It looks as if it can't even write the flash area reliably; very strange. Same computer, same everything works fine with IAR. I've tried copying msp430.dll from the IAR directory (2.1.10.1) to the CrossWorks directory (was 2.1.7.0) with no discernible effect. Has anyone got this working?
Crossworks vs. ez430 USB?

It isn't shown in the list of targets. Leon

I've just found that it works on another computer, and I'm up and running, but I'd like to know why it no worky (suddenly) on my spare PC.
