Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C5535

My CCS 4.0 installation hangs up in Installing C5500  Code Generation Tools, Installing Windows Format Libraries

My system:

Dell XPS14 Laptop

Intel Core i7 @ 2.00GHz

8GB RAM

Win7 Enterprise (64bit)

External DVD-ROM drive running on USB 

To start installation:  

I click on Setup_CCS_4.2.4.00033.exe in my TMS320C5535 eZDSP USB kit's CD-ROM.  

Things I have tried:

Turned UAC to 'never notify'

Installing in C:\TI, C:\Texas Instruments, C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments

I am the Administator on this laptop

Has anyone else run into this problem before?

    Hi Sean,

    here are a few things to try/tips.

    1 - first and foremost if there is no specific reason for v4, I would very very strongly recommend downloading and installing the latest version (v5.4) from here.  Use the full installer and fully unzip and install to a simple local directory with antivirus disabled.   I would remove the previous attempts first.

    2 - if you need v4 ... try the same with v4.  The cds ship with old versions and at times the installer can be a bit touchy when multiple drives are involved in an install.

    Please keep us informed how it goes.

    Best Regards,

    Lisa

    Finally got CCS 4.0 installed.  I am now successfully processing samples and pushing them out the DAC. Here's how it went down:

    1.  Could not install with the software provided in dev kit cd-rom.  Either permissions issue or damaged cd-rom, which looked like it had been smudged with glue???

    2.  So, deleted everything I had attempted to install.

    3.  Recreated cd-rom contents on my hard drive by downloading software as needed from ti website.

    4.  Now, I could successfully install ccs 4.0 from the hdd.  btw: I will not not do ccs 5 until necessary, since I have everything working. 

    5.  However, I could not get my emulator to connect, or download code to the processor.  :( 

    6.  So, I copy and pasted the error code and found another user on the ti website with a similar problem.  

    7.  This user experiences led me to reflash the EEPROM for the usb controller or emulator (can't remember which).  

    8.  After that, ccs could detect my device and I was up and running.  

    Sorry, can't remember everything, but I was at my mother-in-law's when I was figuring all this out and don't have access to the google history because it all got saved under her account....

    Hi Sean,

    thanks for the update and feedback.  Glad you are past the hurdles.   We are aware of some of the issues with older dvd copies.
