well looked threw all my software and found out not only does BRE crash on me so does ECU Flash??/

was looking over some 3g eclipse maps for a customer and my ecu flash crash's every time now. we used his laptop and he sent me over the wrong map file but with any bin it crashes i took some screen shots of the error codes that appeared.

all other programs run fine??? anyone have any ideas?

It's a work machine. You set a system restore point, correct?

solely for tuning not an actual work laptop. i wiped it out completely, i hope!

if you weren't trying to reflash a euro 04 sti, you wouldn't get that error

works in rom raider just fine this was a base map i had sitting around so was seeing if it messed up on all maps and it did. wasnt actualy flashing a ecu.

So it's a work machine. Did you set a system restore point?

FreshDA9 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 19, 2009, 10:50:49 PM »

sorry jd thats a negative on the restore point checked and it says my restore point is today. also couldnt find my windows disk when i restarted it so im using a bootleg copy buddy said he has a legit copy and he is a computer freak so i might let him go at this.

I'd reformat, reinstall everything the way I like it, and set up system restore.

Find out what Ben Ogle programmed BRE in and download the runtime libraries.

I assume you have the .net framework stuff installed. It needs it to run BRE.

Yes i Do

JD i will look around and even try to send him an email

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #17 on:** July 17, 2009, 01:23:19 AM »

Do so, he's a bright dude and has worked hard at BRE. I'm sure he can be of assistance.

I'd start by looking at BRE in the pgmfi.org forums, sir. He'll have some contact info thrown up.

FreshDA9 · « **Reply #18 on:** July 22, 2009, 12:17:47 AM »

Ok i havent herd from Ben yet but i did get BRE to open on my laptop now but im still having issues. my framework was 2.2 or something like that updated now to 3.5. now when i open it BRE says "Compiler Error , Version 2.0 is not a compatible version"

? (im running 2.2.4). then it says "BRE, Error while opening". then after that message it opens and will load my bin's and everything. Now im bench testing it with my ostrich but no matter what i click on or off it wont detect an emulator. my crome and tuner pro detect it. any input?

O and i gave up on pgmfi a long time ago this same thread was started the same day i put it on here and there is only 1 reply over there. none of there threads get answered in my opinion and thats not just my post thats other users also.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #19 on:** July 22, 2009, 12:53:05 AM »

Hrm.

What COM port is your Ostrich coming up as?

FreshDA9 · « **Reply #20 on:** July 22, 2009, 10:11:45 AM »

Com 4 is what i have it set as i have also tried to change it to 1,2,3,5 still nothing. maybe it has somthing to do with this weird error im getting? i usually keep my Hulog at com 1 and Ostrich at com 4.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #21 on:** July 22, 2009, 11:16:13 AM »

I don't think it's your problem, but FTDI drivers can be wierd. Get on FTDI's site and run their FTDIClean utility, then reinstall your Moates drivers and try again.

i did FTDI clean again and reinstalled the drivers and Negative still doesnt work for BRE? crome still detects and sends the rom also tuner pro also detects the ostrich. still no word from Ben.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #23 on:** July 24, 2009, 11:53:42 AM »

It's got to be some sort of software conflict, and not an interface problem. I don't know what Ben programmed BRE in, if you can dredge that from pgmfi.org or BRE's site you can find the most up to date libraries for that language and install them at which point it should work.

Just like eCtune is scripted in .NET so you have to download the .NET framework (libraries) for it to run, there are software libraries for various flavors of VB, C, C+, C++, Java, etc. What is likely is that you have an older version of these libraries that causes a glitch, or you have an up to date version that has become corrupted.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #24 on:** July 24, 2009, 11:56:19 AM »

Okay, I just reread this thread since I obviously lost track of what's going on. BRE is on .NET, and you've already done that. I suspect your runtimes are corrupt.

Go to add/remove programs and remove the .NET framework, as well as BRE. Reboot. Download and install .NET 3.5. Reboot. Download and install BRE. Pray for success.
