Man has this group been QUIET! WAKE UP! Motorola is discontinuing the HC11 family! JUST KIDDING! I upgraded my AEVM when I switch to an XP based PC. P&E kindly gave me their XP-compatable Win IDE, version 1.2 but I haven't used it much. I have a new MC68HC11E9 project that assembles ok but when I try to move to the Debugger, I get the following message in the Status window: "Attempting to open COM1 ... Successful. Attempting to Contact EVM Board ... Contact Established. Reset encountered. Default directory path is invalid. (C:\Data Files\Programming) Switching to working directory. Error : Invalid or Not Ready Drive" Whenever I try to load the S19 file, I get this same invalid path message. I have been thru the "environment" settings and everything seems ok. I can't find anything in the Help menus. I have even tried un-installing the P&E and reinstalling it but I still get the same message. I sent a technical support request to P&E, who claim to answer in "1 business day", but have not had a response. Does anybody else use the P&E Development Kit? Is there another setting (aside from "environment") for the debugger file path? What did I miss? I HAVE TO find out how to get the .s19 and .map files into the debugger! HELPPPPPPPPPPPP! |

Try using DOS-friendly paths, i.e., no spaces as in "Data Files" and names no longer than 8.3 characters. This often solves a lot of mystery problems. |

Just for the groups information, I got a new copy of AEVM from P&E
and installed it - everything works fine again. If you have AEVM from P&E, make sure you keep a copy in a safe (non-writeable) location. P&E figured one of the files on my original (a writeable CD) got corrupted - looks like they were right! Ya gotta love Dave over at P&E - they gave me a free copy of AEVM11 when my old DOS version quit working and now the replaced my corrupted copy. Now THAT'S customer service! Back in business now . . . |
