I think there is a fix for this in the April update package but I'm not
exactly sure about it, you might try the latest update

Did you ever get a response from tech support about your Mountain ICE problem?

I installed ver 3.5 and the Mountain Ice emulator no longer
can write into the 21065L external sram. (Works fine on
the 21062 however). I didn't have this problem with ver 3.0
so it seems to be a ver 3.5 issue. Tech support hasn't
responded yet.

One thing I like about 3.5 is that it seems you can have
more than one project open at the same time. I don't think
that was true with ver 3.0.

Thank you everybody.

Yes, the solution seems to come (I have not done it yet) from a poster

Installing the TigerSHARC components of VisualDSP++ 3.5 for 32-Bit
Processors onto a Windows98 machine will fail with the following

Thank you very much!

I have no idea, My installs were to Win 2K & XP and were fine. I thought 
I saw a response on the ADSP discussion list mentioning a patch for 
Win98.

Do you have enough memory in the Win 98 machine?

Hi Al. I posted this already in another thead, but I got no replies.
So I'm writting it down here. I'm having problems installing VDSP++
3.5 for 32b on Win98SE, spanish version. When it's getting almost
ready, the installation process goes backwards itself, and gets
self-cancelled. Do you have comments on this? I installed VDSP++ 3.5
for 16b on the same machine, and the march2004 update, all of this
without any problems at all.

I hope you can shed some light.

JaaC

The 3.0 DPJ file is automatically backed up to a DPJ.BAK file when you
convert to a 3.5 project - if you want to revert back to the 3.0
version, just rename the backup.

They changed the .dpj compatability (again). So be warned that it will
prompt you to convert the .dpj format to the new version if you open a 3.0
project using the 3.5 tools. So as long as you maintain separate projects
(perhaps even directories) you should be ok.
