How to create .bin file from .out in eZdsp C5535

Hi,

First question: How can I burn my program into eZDSP C5535? You may call me a newbie but I have not seen any harder way to burn a code into a kit until I have been working with eZDSP C5535 and Code Composer. Maybe it is because of Code Composer, I have always used IAR to program MSP430 in my previous projects.

Second question: It seems that I have to create .bin file to insert into the Code Composer after I debugged the program, I would be able to debug and run successfully all of the examples on the kit. But all of the workarounds that were posted in the forums did not work to create the .bin file from .out file that was created during debugging. hex55 does not create any file, can anyone troubleshoot my problem here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\emulation\boards\ezdsp5535_v1\tes
ts\lcd-osd9616\Debug>hex55 -i ./boot_post.out -o ./project.bin -boot -v5505 -b -
serial8
Translating ./boot_post.out to Binary format...
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> .cinit       (BOOT LOAD)
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> vectors      (BOOT LOAD)
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> .text        (BOOT LOAD)
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> .const.1     (BOOT LOAD)
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> .const.2     (BOOT LOAD)
   "./boot_post.out"   ==> .const.3     (BOOT LOAD)

    I found out that it was my laptop to be the problem. When I have tested the same line code to generate the .bin file on a different laptop, it worked. Damn, it cost me full day. Anyways I have a solution for now but I do not understand why it does not work on my laptop (Windows 7 -64 bit)

    I feel like I am talking to myself but incase someone may have the same problem, here is the hint:

    Make sure you do not run hex55.exe under Program Files folder of Windows since it may be protected by the administrator user.
