    Hello Shawn,

    Thanks for your question. Please provide the following information:

    Sharp American website:
    downloaded filename:
    CF card type/formatted as?:
    LoLo version:

    What environment are you running the kit under? What Software is running, what cables are connected, etc?

    Debugging Procedure:
    Have you tried running the sample WinCE NK.bin's from Logic PD download site? They are listed along with the BSP. Download the LCD appropriate file and burn it to a CF card. This would help to determine if the sharp image is corrupt.

    I would modify the boot script as well. This should be contained on the CF card in the Autoexec.bat file. Remove the debugging parameters and launch the image with the 'exec' command.

    Regards,

    Hello Shawn,

    Thanks for the info. Please contact Sharp for support of files from their site.

    Logic has example files available as well. Have you attempted to run the example nk.bins?

    To do this logon to the downloads site, under "Windows CE Demo Images for SDK-LH7A400-10"
    Select the appropriate file (match to display),

    1. burn to CF card and try to run.
    2. if still error try downloading nk.bin via ethernet (card engine supports tftp, refer to logicloader user manual for more instruction on this, tftp server software readily available on web)
    3. Verify CF card is formatted on Win2000 machine (NT and XP have caused some issues) as FATFS
