Keil C166 Compiler v3.04 and Windows XP

To support our legacy product based upon the C166 micro-controller we have been using the v3.04 version of the compiler.

I know the compiler is way out of date but since we have moved on from the C166 we just need something to support existing product.

This compiler version is fine on Windows 95/98 but does not work on Windows XP, I think it is down to the way XP communicates with the parallel port.

Anyone got any ideas to try and solve this????

  • The IDE is working fine, basically only when I compile do I get the error. I have tried to compile a sample 'C' source file from a XP Dos window and still get "missing security device".

    I have even installed the 'latest' driver file from the sentinal web-site (I think), checked BIOS settings, etc but still no joy.

    I do have a 98 machine set up and working but it would be nice to keep the development work on the main machine.

    I have requested the correct driver files from Keil so now have to find the software serial number, thought it would be on the dongle but no joy.....
