It is planned that (most versions of) Windows 7 will ship with a Windows XP (emulation) mode. I don't know if the old XP shell can be used but at least Cygwin can be installed and used if it fails on native Windows 7. http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/business/archive/2009/04/24/coming-soon-windows-xp-mode-and-windows-virtual-pc.aspx BR Josef ___ AVR-GCC-list mailing list AVR-GCC-list@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-gcc-list
RE: [avr-gcc-list] Windows 7 issue ? Avrdude - strange garbage atendof filename
Did you try using the command line above, but with quoting the filename, and other parameters? Like so: avrdude -c stk500v2 -p m8 -u -U benz-ppm3.hex -U lfuse:w:0x21:m -U lock:w:0x3c:m I tried enclosing the hex file in quotes (had no effect) , but not all the parameters. I'll try that tomorrow... I'm also considering installing an older version of Winavr (which I used until yesterday) to see if the problem persists. Another thing, the garbage is random so is the length - eg. benz-ppm3.hex#h, or benz-ppm3.hex$~k,wk,L etc. The issue sounds like a shell issue, not necessarily an application issue. You might wait until the real RC1 shows up before getting serious with this. After all, Micro$soft says they are working hard on bugs and fom what little I can tell it actually seems true. Here's another idea (which Eric should comment on first): Try loading CygWin and running avrdude *only* (not the make or anything else) from the cygwin bash window. That eliminates the Windows DOS shell as the issue.
