Code Composer 3.3 for Window 7

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO, UNIFLASH

Anybody has experience with code composer 3.3 in Window 7.  I tried to install Code Composer 3.3 in Window 7 and coulsn't make it work.

  • Could you provide more details on the install issues you encountered? Did you check the CCS 3.3 installation error FAQ?

    ki

  • When I installed 3.3, I got several 1920 errors. I just ignored them and finished the installation. Then when I tried to upgrad to the latest service release, the installation stopped in the middle. I have worked with CCS3.3 in XP and Vista with no problems.

    I taked to TI support. They told me CCS3.3 in Window 7 is not tested, and recommended me use CCS4.0.

     

    Thanks.

     

     

     

  • Jay,

    What folder are you installing into?  Win7 seems to be extra sensitive about installing into program files or program files (x86). 

    I just installed 3.3 on my laptop which is running Win7 ultimate 64bit and I get a few of those dialogs when CCS trys to install drivers for ISA & PCI emulators.   I also have UAC dialed down and my user account has admin privs.  The fact that you see these errors is not a big deal, it basically means the services it is trying to install are not compatible with your version of windows.   The important thing is that you make sure that there is a 64bit driver available for the emulator you are using.  You will need to check with your emulator vendor.  The first time I close cc_setup I get a message asking me if it installed ok (I just say yes).

    I do recommend moving to CCSv4 if you can.   It is tested on Win7, once again it is best to install somewhere other than program files.  64bit drivers exist for most emulators for CCSv4 (TI, Spectrum Digital & Blackhawk drivers are installed by CCS). 

    Regards,

    John

  • Jay - can you attach your TI_InstallLog.txt file found in the root of your C drive? In regards to the SR update getting stuck, did you try the suggestion on the FAQ about running thr SR installer in safe mode (Does Windows 7 have a "safe mode")?

  • I'm running CCS3.3.83.16 on Windows 7.

    1. Start "Setup Code Composer Studio v3.3"

    2. Add what ever configurations you need if htey don't already exist

    3. Under "File" select "Start Code Composer Studio"

    4. App should start

     

  • I actually ran into this error when I tried to install CC3.3 on a 64bit XP window machine.

    Error 1920. Service 'DRPKIONT' failed to start. Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    I do have admin privilege on this machine.

    Any solution?

    Thanks

  • I think the 'DRPKIONT' issue has something to do with XDS560 windows drivers not installing properly. If you are not using the TI XDS560 emulator, you can try a custom install and not install the drivers for it. That may help.

  • Thanks for your fast response.
    I did custom install without TI XDS5600, the error message 1920 is still displayed during the installation. However, I have just ignored the message and complete the installation.
     
    I checked the installation log file and found three different errors messages:
     
    2863  3 times
    2835  2 times
    1920  1time
     
    Please let me know if these errors will prevent me to use CC normally.
     
  • Can you attach your install log file?

  • Hello Ki-Soo Lee, 

     

    I have the same error, too, trying to install ccs 3.1on Windows7 64bit running on a virtual machine (Parallels under Mac OS X). Under Windows XP all was fine, so I have tried every compatibility setting and started the ccs setup with administrator privileges, too. Here is my log file attached. It may help you to find the problem. I would appreciate, if you could find a way to fix the problem and post a comment regarding this issue.

    Yours Ahnt

  • Ahnt,

    You are getting the same errors described by JohnS (dpkiont.sys and xdsfast1.sys). As John mentioned, you can ignore those errors.

    ki

     

  • Dear Ki-Soo Lee,

     

    thank you for your fast response. I tried ignoring the errors, but I cannot connect to our C6713 DSKs anyway. I used C6455 DSKs with ccs v3.3 under Windows XP (running on a virtual machine, too) before and it worked, so I do not believe that it is a problem with USB routing from the host system to the VM. I go on evaluating the problem but I am running out of ideas...

    Regards,

    Ahnt

     

  • Which emulator are you using?

  • We are using DSK's embedded USB JTAG controller and not an external device such as XDS560. I have searched the vendors Website (Spectrum Digital) and found that they do not provide drivers neither for Windows7 nor for Vista. I also tried installation under Vista and it does not work, too. So I suspect that the system services in question are mandatory for using the DSKs. Is there any chance left to fix that without uprading to CCS v4?

  • What is the error message that you get when you try to connect the 6713 DSK?

     

  • FWIW, a colleague got it all running using "XP Mode" which is a feature available in Win 7 Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate.  (This mode actually runs a full Windows XP virtual machine under the hood to do it.)  It costs $89 to upgrade from Home Premium to Professional.  It's probably worth it if you really want CCS 3.3 on Windows 7.

  • Hi Everyone,

    For my test ,I can do win7 64bit + CCS3.3 , I try to install CCS4 because CCS4 Include Win7 64bit Device Driver then install CCS3.3 ,

    It's could be work, if you want CCS3.3 on windows7 64 bit ,  

     

    Good Luck!

  • I upgraded to Win 7 Professional just to try CCS 3.2 under Virtual XP.

    CCS indeed runs and comes up, but it can't connect to the XDS560 so it is of no use for me.

  • Tom,

    If you are using the TI XDS560 PCI emulator, you will not be able to use it from a virtual machine since the PCI bus doesn't support multiple operating systems sharing it on the same host. There is a workaround you can use though.

    USB based emulators should work though

  • Thanks Ki-Soo

    It seems I would have to buy the remote XDS560 package from Spectrum for $495 ?

  • There are native LAN emulators available as well: https://estore.ti.com/TMDSEMU560V2STM-UE-XDS560v2-System-Trace-P2124.aspx

     

  • So let me try and rephrase this question in plain English:

    Has anyone actually gotten CCS 3.3 to work on Windows 7, and if so how, exactly?   

    (Note I'm not asking about a virtual machine running in Windows XP mode)

  • Michael,

    I have CCSv3.3 running on Windows 7.  There are issues, and is not officially supported, but it does run.

    1. You need to have admin privs
    2. You need to turn off UAC (turn it all the way off)
    3. You need to install somewhere other than program files or program files (x86)
    4. If you are running the 64bit version you will need to go to your emulator vendors website to find the appropriate drivers.

    Note that if you do that you will be able to run CCSv3.3 on Win7 but you will see issues.  Every once in a while if I run CCS from cc_setup I will get a prompt to save all my work as windows needs to restart.  Win7 doesn't like the registry manipulation that CCSv3 does.

  • Followed these instructions verbatim and still get the same error starting the drpkiont service. 
    Error 1920 if that helps.  I have Admin rights and I have disabled all User Access Control. 
    CCS 3.3, by default, installs itself to the root directory of your local harddrive so step three is more of a tip. 
    I never get to step 4 because the error occurs after installation is nearly complete forcing an abort.   

  • Michael,

    I just sent you a friend request that has a link to the latest 3.3 image.  I recently installed it on my Win7 machine.

    When installing I do get some errors but nothing that causes an abort.  This is because CCSv3.3 doesn't support 64bit by default so it tries to install some 32 bit drivers.  You might want to select custom during install and uncheck any of the the emulator drivers.  That would reduce the number of errors that occur during install.

    Regards,

    John

  • I'm still downloading the CCS 3.3 version you sent me and will install it ASAP.  I am encouraged by this and appreciate the direct support. 
    Can you also recommend or send me the correct drivers for the BlackHawk USB560m if those are special for Windows 7 64-bit? 

  • Looking at the BH site it looks like they have the 64bit driver in their standard installer now.

  • After installing CCS 3.3 platinum edition by ignoring the errors it presents and subsequently installing the latest 64-bit drivers for the USM560m from Blackhawk I am able to use CCS 3.3 on my Windows 7 machine for embedded DSP development.  Thanks John S.  You are a MasterMind! 

  • Excellent!  Glad to hear it is working for you.

    John

  • I am having the same issues.  Can you send me a link to the latest 3.3 image also?

  • I don't think Spectrum has 64bit drivers for the onboard emulators for CCSv3.3.  They have them for CCSv4.x.  It would be best for you to contact Spectrum Digital.

  • Working as admin and UAC off are not strictly necessary. It is enough to setup "Run as administrator" in compatibility settings of the CCS & CCS Setup shortcuts. My installation resides in C:\TI\CCS, so recommendation to avoid Program Files seems to be just right.And, finally, compatible emulator is SD XDS510 USB. WFM.

  • Hi,

    I just tried to instal the CCS v3.3 under Windows 7 64-bit. I disabled the UAC and run the setup as administrator. I also used the default installation path of the CCS.

    The inastallation was terminated bacause of an error with code 1722.

    Have you got any ideas?

    Thank you!!

     

  • Did the log mention anything about DSP/BIOS?  People get that sometimes when installing 3.3.  I believe Ki-Soo has a fix for this.  I will ask him to send you a private message with it.

  • Two errors about services installation happen at the end of process, if my memory serves me well. Just ignore them.

  • Hi John,

    Can I get a link to the latest 3.3 image also?  I am having the same problem as Michael with regards to installing Code Composer 3.3 on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine.

    Thanks,

  • hi, Ki-Soo

    I have same problom, could you give me some comments? thank you

  • hi, Ki-Soo

    I just tried to instal the CCS v3.3 under Windows 7 64-bit, but the inastallation was terminated bacause of an error with code 1722.

    CCS version: 3.3.82.10.1

     

    And I just want to use it for debug (Simulator) due to "Expand as array" still not supported in CCS 4.2.

    Could you give me some advice? 

  • I was facing same problem? Using above suggestions, i have now successfully installed and utilized ccs v3.3. It works.

    thanks

  • Hi Ki-Soo Lee,

    I need to use XDS510 usb with TMS320LF2407 on Windows 7. I installed CCS 3.3 and it did give the error 1920 a few times which I ignored. But, as indicated earlier, Spectrum Digital does not seem to have support for WIndows 7 64 bit for these. Is there a way to connect? This is urgent.

    Thanks

    Vyass

  • Hi Vyass,

    Sorry, but you will need 64-bit drivers from Spectrum Digital. Did you try contacting them or did you just go to their website? Maybe they have 64-bit drivers for 3.3 and it is not public. I suggest contacting them if you have not done so. 

    ki

  • Ki,

    Thank you for your fast reply. They do not have the drivers on their website and I have sent them a request on their support page. Hope I get the drivers.

    Thanks

    Vyass

  • I was using SD XDS510 on Windows 7 x64 with CCS 3.3. Searching drivers on SD web site was not easy, but that was the only source.

  • Hi

    Is this the SD XDS510 USB? Is there a link that you could give me where the driver is available? I searched but to no avail and their support have not responded at all.

    Thanks a lot.

  • Hello,

     

    i did the same and all works fine for me.

    But i have another problem. I want to change the compiler to a newer version. So i installed Code Generation Tools 5.2.2. Start Code Composer, entered Component Manager.  Went to  Build Tools -> chose the TMS320C28XX and changed the Compiler from 4.1.3 to 5.2.2. Save and exit. After restart the Code Composer no compiler is chosen and compiling is not possible. If i go to the Component Manager again, no compiler is chosen.

    It looks like, that Code Composer cant save the actual compiler settings.

     

    Can anybody help me?

     

    Greetings

    Michael

  • There is no proven working recipe. When I was playing with 6.1.x, I had same trouble. Sometimes I was able to select code generation tools, but mostly -  no. A a workaround you may try to backup your CGT folder and copy newer CGT over it. Do at your owns risk.
