I am not out to bash windows in all its glory, but a little common sense would be nice, if this is an improvement on vista then vista must have been truly horrible. The standard theme presented is horrible and the "are you sure you want to open that file that you just clicked on" followed by "are yo...

I can now confirm two things, one, SF works perfectly well in Win7 and secondly, win7 looks like a 14 year old girl designed the graphics in her art class.

Well to my absolute amazement there was another wild goose chase. For unfathomable reasons windows nannies my files on to the hard disk in 3 different places, and just to make it a little more exciting it makes the one required hidden so it is not available unless you can find the file options form ...

Hello Octal, Thanks for the reply, I use XP and have never seen a Vista machine, in XP the folders have always been in Program files when installed, certainly was when I tested on a completely new XP install on a spare machine yesterday. Any way, it looks like windows thinks it knows what is best fo...

As part of my companies business we have to test code on all platforms, unfortunately Windows 7 is here and it has to be part of the structure. It works beautifully in the VM on my Mac but when trying to install SF things go awry. The install goes well and the dongle is installed no problem. A test ...

I think the idea of short for the cable is below 5cm, 15cm seems very long for this type of display, they are very sensitive to crosstalk on the wires.

This may not cure you problem but it will stop others which may occur later.

Thank you nigle I will report back after testing it, you both seem to have the same solution so it may well be the one.

Thanks for the reply octal, this routine is not exclusively used for this purpose as you might expect, it serves all my debug output needs which are generally longer than just a character, they are all intact and do not alter the amount of ram needed, it only occurs when I send the contents of the a...

I have been working on a project for the past 3 months which has always had on little issuette that I manfully ignored until now. While using an array to receive data I noticed that adding a certain number of elements to it seemed to increase the SRAM usage by an unconnected amount, this was ignored...

Why don't you look at the microchip definition files, they are almost exactly the same whatever the language, compare them to the nearest equivalent and have a go your self. The files are not that hard to do, all are available in the compiler and you will not break stuff if its not right. In fact an...

I do not wish to sound patronising but how about just sending smaller amounts that do not fail and have more packets if that will get it going right now?

I have got these chips in quite a few products, all commercial so no routines to give away, I do have available the register constants which others have had, they are the boring bit, PM if you would like them.

I have no problem with Fusion on the Mac but Parallels is really not very flexible on the USB side of things. Fusion allows attach and detach of all and any USB device at any time from any state of the view or if the device is on a hub, you can even have Mac and XP devices on the same hub and it all...

Well looking logically, I do not have the issue on a real XP laptop or on a Mac with XP in a VM with several different programs I tried tonight. I suspect most others do not get this either (from the response). I suppose that as you are only just seeing happen now the problem must be something that ...

I have worn out a couple of 46K20s in the last year on my development hardware, one was an engineering sample and of the hand packaged devices, the other was a full production device, I have estimated the usage at about 4k programming cycles of the flash code for each in that time (I compile a lot!)...
