having issues with USBASP driver
having issues with USBASP driver
i have a USBASP device and i am trying to install on my laptop that is running vista and i have tried multiple sites and their software for the drivers and i have tried everything and it still says could not install or what not. so does anyone know of such software out there that will work with my setup would love to try and flash my 9XR before the weekend is up, thanks in advance for all the advice ya throw my way.
Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Looking for the USBasp driver starts here
This page points to here
For those, who can read Vista and XP not supported in ver.2.3
So, try an older version!
Don't need a zadig driver here, running Linux, but did a short test with WIN XP in vbox.
Just for you
No issue ....

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
You are not alone. I upgraded one of my Dell systems to Windows 10 and have had no luck getting the driver to install ... and my world is IT. After many hours I gave up completely.
The good news is, I have a whole raft of older systems all running Linux (mostly Ubuntu Mate & Ubuntu) and the software and hardware get along perfectly. I simply added the USBASP driver (via Synaptic) and perfect.
So many people sit in total frustration with their old laptop when for literally no $$$$ they could be running a much faster more stable system. I keep one Window$ system because a few of the programs I need (a music, a GPS and a tax program) exists only in that world. The Window$ system is literally 95% of my maintenance and almost 100% of my frustration.
So, haul that old laptop out of the cupboard (we all seem to have one or two) and put Ubuntu Mate on it. You might be surprised.
--- As a final note to techies ... I have been playing with Ubuntu 17.04 with the new Gnome desktop ... and am seriously impressed. Version 18 of these packages could turn out to be a game-changer. Bye bye Unity!

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Don't know what to hell is all the fuss about.
I have several Win10 systems (pro, 64) here and no problems with usbasp.
Drivers installed via Zadig.
Only downside I found is this:
Arduino IDE (1.6.10) (with avrdude 6.3) only works with WinUSB drivers provided e.g. by Zadig (2.2).
But avrdude 5.1 provided e.g. with eepe (er9x) doesn't work with this driver.
On the other hand avrdude 5.1 (eepe) works with libusbk and libusb-win32,
but arduino IDE's avrdude (6.3) doesn't.
So you have to try every three drivers weather it is suitable for you.

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
thanks fellas for all the input, but the only reason why i been running vista is because that's what came with this laptop and it has never given me issues installing software til now, i might pull out one of my old non using laptop and maybe try one of these programs you guys are talking about. lol
thanks again will keep ya posted.

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Go to eepe, preferences, and try adding -B100 to the "Extra Arguments" field just below to COM Port..
Then try to read the firmware or the eeprom to a file. Do not try to flash the radio at this point.

Hi blkfleet,
If you have not found yet, here is some more information which may be of some help too.

and Er9x Manual (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6473).
Do you have a 9XR or is it a 9XR-Pro ?
Makes a differences to what you will use on your PC,
eePe with er9x firmware (9XR)
or
eeSkye with erSky9x firmware (9XR-Pro)

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
I did run out of ideas, don't know what you could try next apart from getting another programmer. Can you post a picture of it?
does it plug directly to the radio?? Or did you have to use/make an adapter??

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Some people say 9XR when they have a 9XR-Pro that's why I ask.
It's difficult to help when little info is given, so the helper has to guess what what hardware and software they are working with.
So we do the best we can with what info we can see.
On a different thread I said 9XR and João assumed 9XR-Pro.
This happens a lot with these two radios and there is a lot more 9XR-Pro then there are the old 9XR's out there.

Yes, please post a pic of your programmer.
Those are my two here. The lower one gave trouble from time to time, until I did a firmware update.

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
New member, fairly computer literate but a novice at flashing firmware. Using a Turnigy 9X, anxious to try er9X. Installed a SmartieParts usbasp and downloaded Companion 9x as well as eePe. So far spent 6-7 hours trying to write the hex file firmware to my Turnigy 9x. No luck. On my Mac, Companion 9x constantly gives error "AVRDude.exe not found". Same message on my Mac OS 10.11.6 using eePe. Used my Windows 10, no luck. Tried eePe on Windows 10 and Windows Vista....get error message that avrdude is completed but nothing written to Turnigy 9x. Used Zadig to install driver for usbasp. (Older version of Zadig for Vista laptop) Driver is installed but no luck at all. Would love to try er9X or Open TX but I am so frustrated. I may just convert my old laptop using Vista to Ubuntu 17.04....great idea!

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Please try eepe on windows 10 again. When you have finished trying to flash or read, go to the "burn" menu and select "review output". Copy the text from the window that opens and post it here.

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
hi with the help of Joao, i got my issue resolved.
this is what i did to get the proper driver for my usbasp
i went to hobbyking website looked up their usbasp, there they have a "file" tab and folks have uploaded drivers there i went to install drivers at the bottom of the list and that worked like a champ first try up!

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
This means that your radio has an m128 processor inside, not the m64. Go to preferences in eepe and change the processor type.
Don't try to flash anything at this time. Do a firmware read first to make sure all is ok before writing the firmware..
NEVER, BUT NEVER EVER USE THE -F OPTION, unless you want to brick your radio..Double check chip, or use -F to override this check.

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
Well guys, I appreciate all the help....tried to re flash setting up the eepe to the 128 processor. Suddenly, got an "Eprom Error". Looked up how to re set this, plugged in my battery pack and instant smoke! I guess my Turnigy 9X is toast! Any transmitter I can buy that comes stocked with er9x? At this point with this many hours, don't care what it mat cost me!!!

Re: having issues with USBASP driver
eeprom error is normal after flashing. The radio will format it..
Perhaps you plugged the battery with wrong polarity? That means instant smoke..
