Can't fully erase
Why I can't do that? : The BMD-200 can be fully erased by holding down ‘Reset’ button for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, status LED, D6, will flash faster while erasing. Once the erase procedure is complete, status LED, D6, will return to solid, and communication LED, D5, will turn off. I can open the bootloader drive but not the mbed drive. Why?

Charles,
Can you detail what exactly you having trouble with, can you not program the device or not erase?
Which version of the BMD-200 do you have?
If it is the BMD-200-EVAL-M then:
On the BMD-200-EVAL-M, the Reset button has three purposes. If held while powering on the Evaluation Board, it will enter the mbed bootloader mode for updating the mbed programmer. During normal operation the BMD-200-EVAL-M Reset button will perform a reset to the BMD-200 if powered through USB, but if powered from the battery the Reset button has no function. A long press (5 seconds) of the Reset button will perform a full erase of the BMD-200.

Let me know how you get on.
