Hi!
I just got my HB with the I/O-expansion card and the start-up was not as
straightforward as I have thought. I don't know if this will help you but
... I'm using a Toshiba laptop with Win98 and found that in order to get the
serial communication to work I have to run first the HBDL (although it won't
download anything) and after that I can use the DL and/or IC programs.
The version of the IC is something 2.81 and it isn't really Win98
compatible. Whole computer will hang after 10 to 15 minutes. Anyway I gonna
order the latest (3.2) version of the IC.
Is there somewhere any comparisons between the IC 3.x and the ImageCraft C
(ICC11 V5)?

Hi HBoarders!
Can anybody help me with making my HB run? Following the instructions
from the assembly manual, there were no problems until installing the
memory. Before it, the serial communication worked fine with hbdl
downloading the pcode, although I had to use dl.exe to change the
config register value from 0x0D to 0x0C on the 68HC11A1FN. With
hbdl.exe or dlm.exe, this was not possible. After installing the
memory and LCD, downloading pcode is still possible, but only with
hbdl or dl, dlm displays board synchronization error. The bad thing is
that the LCD displays no message, only the bottom row displays full
5x7 characters. I do not think that the LCD is bad, it is new, just
packed out. I will check the LCD, but I think it is OK (it is a Data
Vision P 1-1113). The other thing is that the board does not want to
communicate with ic.exe. IC only reports synchronizing with board. I
am using a 400MHz Pentium II PC with Windows 98 installed.
I really do not know where the problem is, I am trying to find it,
maybe it is the memory, but the behavior of the LCD is the same, with
or without memory, even without the 68HC11, only the voltage
connected.
If somebody had similar problems, or has an idea how to revive my HB,
it would be very helpful for me!
Many thanks,
