TMS320F2812: Importing a F2812 project with DSP/BIOS project from ccs v6 to ccs v8 fails--The DSP/BIOS Settings don't import.

Part Number: TMS320F2812

I have a working project using DSP/BIOS on an F2812 on PC-1 in WIN-10 using CCSv6.1.2 and everything works great. I have a 2nd WIN-10, PC-2 that I installed CCSv8.3.1 on and also made sure to install the same v6.4.6 compiler, DSP/BIOS 5.42.01.09, tidcs, and tic2xx in the same locations on the C: drive as with PC-1. I imported the project from PC-1 to my workspace on PC-2, but it has a few errors. When I look compare the build settings in CCS General, PC-1 shows "OUTPUT TYPE" of DSP/BIOS v5.x Application (Executable), with the DSP/BIOS Support section at the bottom of that same page showing DSP/BIOS version: 5.42.1.09. But in the same project build settings on PC-2, CCS GENERAL, the "OUTPUT TYPE" is shown as "Executable" with no DSP/BIOS Settings shown at the bottom. The last line of that build setting page is: Runtime Support Library.

1. How can I fix this? Is there a build setting I can change? Note that the OUTPUT TYPE on both PC-1 & PC-2 are ghosted out and therefore, not changeable.

2. If I cannot fix this with build setting changes, what good would re-importing do, since it didn't work the first time?

3. In general, where is the setting to enable the Output Type to be changed to DSP/BIOS or SYS/BIOS or XDCTOOLS?

I've included screen shots of both build settings on the CCS GENERAL page.

One last question. Is the C2000 microcontrollers Forum the correct place to post this? I would think it should go on the CCS Forum, but it insisted on a P/N, then only allowed the post to this c2000 forum.

Thank you for your help.
