Hello Chris,
One correction, the MBED that i had formatted with XP embedded does not work. The MBED does appear as a flash drive and i can only save the .bin files in it. After pressing the reset, we expect the new .bin file to be loaded into the uC flash and the program should start functioning. This is not happening though the MBED is detected as a flash drive. Also when i plug in the MBED into the USB port apart from appearing as a flash drive, MBED serial port is also shown in the device manager (I have installed the USBSerial driver).
I have also formatted the MBED on the XP machine, that has not restored the MBED.HTM file.
Considering this situation, i suspect that when i press reset button, though the LED goes off, the uC is somehow not getting reset. Are there two parallel switches in the reset push button? one might be switching on and off the LED and the other that is actually connected to the uC reset and the MBED chip reset might not be working. Is that a possibility? or does the fact that MBED appears as a flash drive and serial port rules out this possibility?
I would not like to play around with the hardware, i do not have the facility to work with small SMD devices.
Please let me know how to go about solving this problem.
Thanks,
Rahul
