[SOLVED] Problem with Genius Programmer G540.... [Ccs C Compiler]

[Ansab Sheikh]

can you please help me with installing G40's drives in win 8 64 bit

First of all, I don't have much experience in using G540 on Win 8. Secondly please describe your problem a little better, I don't understand what the problem is.
If the drivers fail to load you may try the compatibility mode as described here.

Although I have not tried to program this device, if I select the device it loads without the error message you reported. Try updating your software, from **broken link removed**

ok thanks.

it's the same with this soft, i have the version 5.20 on win 7 64bit (it was the same on xp 32bit last week)

My version of the software may be more up to date than yours, as I understand it (I may be wrong) the software while being 4.20 comes in different stepping numbers. I think the version I have is the latest version. You can download it and try it (I also corrected many of the spelling errors) here,

thx for your help,

the version 5.20 come from the link on your message #24, maybe it's ok with the 4.20, can you send me it?

this time, i tested: 5.20 + your .exe on win7 64 bit, i have the same message, i will test on win xp this week end

 

[pjmelect]

I am sorry I made a mistake on the version number, I should have said 5.2 not 4.2.



The above link is the latest version of 5.2 with some spelling and grammar corrections, it works on my XP system with the sst27sf256 as far as loading the device goes, but I have not actually tried to program this devices as I do not have one.

 

[pij]

so i test with 5.20 + your .exe on win Xp 32bit.

it's always the same error message, it's very strange because i have no error with sst27sf512 for example.
i have the error without chip on the G540 too.

this is some screens about my problem:

Sorry I have made yet another mistake, I tested the sst27sf256 WITHOUT the programmer connected and I did not get the error message, however when I connected the programmer I get the same error message as you. Another bug with the G540 software. You could try programming it as a sst27sf512, you will get an error message, but it may program correctly.

ok, thx.

i tested with 512 but there is error before burning.

there is no post-sale customer service? because i cantacted them two times but i have no response.
