can anyone point me in the direction of detailed instructions for flashing the Qubide ROM? I have one with V1.28 and I want to bring it up to 1.56. I know where the ROM images are located on Dilwyn Jones QL site but I can't find a utility and written procedures for writing the upgrade image to the existing chip.
thanks, tom

Re: How to flash Qubide ROM
HI Tom, as the e(prom) on qubide is the type that need to erase before re-programming (if is an usual chip with window covered by sticker) you may have an uv eraser and an hardware programmer same as Galep series from Conitech or similar.lowrybt wrote:can anyone point me in the direction of detailed instructions for flashing the Qubide ROM?

Only if the chip is a flash rom you can reprogramming it without delete before, but still needed a programmer circuit to flash the binary file into it...
Only original hardware!

Hi,
I have a suitable Eprom Eraser and Programmer, I can programme Eproms for £5 each.
