| | Re: Temporarily removing official NXT driver to use SAM-BA
|

FYI, just in case anyone has this problem in the future, I was able to fix it by using "Update Driver" in Device Manager while the NXT was in SAM-BA mode, and telling Windows that I would choose the driver. On the list were the Lego driver and the (...) (17 years ago, 23-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi, (...) probably some problem with the USB data transfer on your computer, which corrupted the firmware. This seems to occur with some computers, LEGO put out a driver update last year to correct it: (URL) that the ticking sound doesn't (...) (17 years ago, 23-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I've resurrected the "dead" NXT using the standard procedures and my home computer. Perhaps, the computers in the lab where smarter than mine. Mine performed the download but froze up.

(...) It may just need new batteries. You may want to try putting brand new Alkaline AAs in it and then press the reset button for a long time (or try using BricxCC or NeXTTool to put the brick in SAMBA mode). John Hansen (17 years ago, 22-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I've been working on a tracked robot for my FLL team to play with. I don't have any pictures, but an MLCAD model is about 99% complete.

I reset an errant NXT and completed downloading the firmware. But the NXT still would not wake up and stayed in Samba mode.
