I've switched to a Win7 computer some time ago. I have an old project that for whatever reason needed to run HEX2BIN and BIN2HEX to massage the hex files to be downloaded to an 8051 project. But the old HEX2BIN and BIN2HEX programs are "not compatible" with Win7. The knowledge base says to run them in the XP emulator. ugh. I really don't want to download and slow down my pc with the XP mode. These are trivial utilities - should take someone a couple of minutes to build and post them.
I tried the sourceforge.net versions but the options are a little different and since this is a legacy project I really don't want to spend the time to try to figure this all out.
Can someone compile and post the Keil version of these utilities compiled under Win7 (and 8).
Thanks, Eric
Hi Eric,
you can use a msdos player, which emulates the 16Bit environment. I use for this a tool named "MS-DOS Player for Win32-x64" which you can find at homepage3.nifty.com/.../.
You have to modify the command line like this: msdos64 Hex2bin Param1 Param2...
I hope this helps.
Regards Joachim
