You are on the HxC support forum. For the HxC firmware you need to use this tool :

Re: Gotek SFRC922D
Hi Jeff,
I understand fully the process and I know how to install the correct firmware -
I had already downloaded and tested the software and it links up - and discovers the USB serial TTL device on com5 - The video was to show the pin configuration I'm using to put the board into programmer mode. (not the flashing process)
The Problem I am having is the goteck board will not power on when I jumper the two pins for programmer mode. So I can't flash the drive if it wont power on - to repeat my question - is this revision board SFRC922D different ? Any idea why it won't power on?

Re: Gotek SFRC922D
This is normal : In programming mode, the led and the display are off.
Re: Gotek SFRC922D
Perfect that's great - I'll try flashing it then - thank you Jeff
Re: Gotek SFRC922D
ok so I got it to flash - and the drive now says -ldr- Great
on the first attempt I did have a major problem - i got the blue screen of death - at 49/100 similar to the guy in this thread
http://torlus.com/floppy/forum/viewtopi ... =33&t=2025
I'm running Win7 64 bit
how I got round it was:
right clicked on SecSerialBridge.exe chose compatibility tab
selected run this program in compatibility mode and chose Windows Xp (service pack 3)
I ticked disable display scaling on DPI settings
Then ticked Privilege level - run as administrator
Hope this helps someone else.

Re: Gotek SFRC922D
If anyone could be kind enough to point me to info on how to pre-pair a usb stick to work with and Ensoniq EPS 16+
I'd be grateful as this would save me some hours researching
many thanks

I think that you will find what you want into this archive :

Re: Gotek SFRC922D
Note : For an Gotek without LCD/OLed screen : Rename the HFE files like this : DSKA0000.HFE, DSKA0001.HFE, DSKA0002.HFE... and use the indexed HXCSDFE.CFG file present into the firmware archive.
Re: Gotek SFRC922D
Done!! ran the UPD file added the HFE files all working - Ensoniq EPS 16+ OS loads up !!! thanks so much for the help
