I am having difficulty getting HEX2BIN working under Vista 64-bit. When I attempt to run it, I get an error stating that it's not compatible with Vista 64.
I've tried working around this by using FromElf but it generates a folder with about 40 different bin files in it. I need the output as a single .bin file.
I've contacted support but they weren't able to suggest anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
There are lots and lots of bin/hex tools out there. Have a look at "srecord" for starters.
Thanks, I found the one on Sourceforge and got it working. I was hoping to avoid having to use a different program because I didn't want to deal with a different command line interface but I just wrote a quick translator and it works good enough.

Jason, What tool from SourceForge did you refer to?
It's actually called Hex2Bin. Just do a search from the main SourceForge page. The thing to remember is that if your project starts at anything other address 0, you should set the following parameters in the command line: -p 00 -s 0000 This will pad the bin file with 0s until the start address of your code.
Ho, I know SourceForge (I have two projects there...) It seems that HEX2BIN exits with an error when processing the .hex files generated. I don't remember why - reverted back to FromElf without delay. But you don't need to worry about the multiple files really - I think you get one per load region. so you can pick the right one and work with it, like I do.
