BeMicro and Programming Under Linux

It is not just Linux having the problems you are seeing. I have the same issue with XP Pro 64bit, but I can't find any help. The Arrow rep just told me to switch to a 32bit machine, but good luck finding new 32 bit hardware nowadays, it is all 64 bit. I had to switch to XP Pro due to the stock OS being Win7.

I am using xp pro 64 bit , good luck getting 32 bit hardware now. So far all my development applications have installed with the exception that I can not get the USB Blaster driver to install properly which seems to be required to support the BeMicro eval board.

- When I run the setup file under the BeMicro\programmer folder, the install process seems to work to install the jtag_hw_arrow_usb_blaster.dll

When I check out drivers under Device Manager I see 2 drivers installed:

- Arrow USB-Blaster Port A

- Arrow USB-Blaster Port B

- However, when I work through the BeMicro tutorial and get to the 5.3 section part where it wants me to click Hardware Setup and select Arrow-USB-Blaster in Quartus (I am using quartus v10 sp1), the only option I see is "No Hardware"

I have to get results rolling fast, can someone help me get past the XP Pro 64 bit USB Blaster driver Quartus v10 recognition issue.

Thank you very much,

Dale
