As Matthias pointed out, there can't be any problem with finding libusb.dll if the mspdebug starts. However, since you're using -d to specify a serial device, libusb won't be used at all anyway -- all IO will be done through the OS's serial port interface. If you want to try using libusb access, just remove "-d COM7" from the command line: mspdebug.exe -j uif You'll need to ensure that ti_3410.fw.ihex is in the directory you run from. - Daniel -- D.L.
