OT: some computer help needed



Dear List,

There seems to be a problem with the Win 2000 laptop.
<<http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/w2000Msgs/1264.mspx?mfr=true>>
or

Config problem with config.nt and autoexec.nt
Good luck fixing that if you are not computer friendly...

The batch file in the /src directory executes this command:
download.exe -c1 msns-extra.s19

-c1 being COM port 1
.s19 file being the firmware

Cheers.

Hope this helps.

> There is a batch file that is available for Megasquirt that downloads the firmware to the MS ECU.

> When I run the batch file on my Windows XP laptop the Command Prompt window opens, prompts me for the comm port, then prompts me for the type of download I need to perform and then downloads the file giving status of the download once completed.

> When Cathy tries to run the batch file on her Windows 2000 laptop the Command Prompt window opens but she also gets the following error in a separate error window that pops up and takes precedence over the Command Prompt window:

> C:\WINNT\system32\autoexec.nt. The system file is not suitable for running

> Close/Ignore"
> 
> Choosing "ignore" causes the batch file to continue to the next prompt, but doesn't allow any entry in the Command Prompt window and then the error window opens again with the same message.
