can you read the nvram ? if not make sure you connections are all good and the the jtag is hooked up properly.

if you can read the nvram fine then flip the firm and try reading it again

His problem had nothing to do with flip Firmware Buddy. Notice the command ( flshdct code ) His Problem is that tool is not ID,ing his Flash, therefore he cant program.
Either the USBBDM is not connected Properly or somthing else may be the problem. Scrotuman Any Backups You Made of this Box May Likely Be No GOOD.

Check if you forget to disable watchdog for old type board. (Check if C105 exist and being cut off)

This board is a ph7. The watchdog 105 resistor is completely on the other side of the receiver. Just wanted to verify this information. Thanks again for all your help.

No Need to cut off 105 on PH7 , Only on PH6 and CR4 Boards.

Do you see BDM ON after "reset 1"?
Your command should be
"reset 1"
"init"
"flshdct code"

I am trying to re-write the DIP back onto box and it stops writing half way through the eeprom write.

What can I do to correct this.

BDM says off and this is command I am using

reset 1
init
flshdct dip

ldram dip
program dip


is this correct?
