EB020 CPLD Board and windows 7 64-bit?

Post by barc0de »

Hi, I don't suppose you have any experimental drivers supporting win7 64bit? I have bought a EB020 CPLD board and cannot currently use it for my uni work.

I don't mind beta testing any if you have.

Cheers,

Damien

That would be great. I don't suppose you would have a time frame as my work has already begun and it is due early December.

As I said I don't mind testing out experimental/beta drivers.

Cheers,

Damien

Hello

Sorry this slipped my mind completely. Many apologies.

I have managed to dig out some 64-bit drivers that should be compatible with the EB020. Please give these beta drivers a go, I will also try them out tonight and let you know how I get on.

Hi Ben,

I don't know if you have had any luck but i've installed the driver and can configure it (Putting windows 7 into test mode and signing the driver so it can be loaded by windows). But when I install the ECP printer port and try to set it's resource settings manually, all of the preset I/O ranges selectable in the Matrix driver are all occupied by the PCI bus on my machine. I'm not sure what to do from here. Any suggestions?

Cheers

Damo

Hello again,
I've managed to get it all working under Virtual PC 2009 (Win7's XP Mode). Thanks for your assistance Ben with the drivers. I would test any new revisions you might have if you like.

Kind Regards,

Damien

Hi, I am new on the forum but use EB020 for over 6 years now in my class. We are upgrading the PC's (finally) to WIN10 but encountered the above problem. I've tried you beta driver, but no use. WIN 10 has no virtual XP as far as I know. Do you have a solution ?

Thanks,
Geert.
