I modified two cartridges today, one that is based on a memory-mapper-less cart which holds two 28HC256 EEPROMs (32KByte) and one based on MMC1 which holds two 49F002 flash chips (256KByte.) When it came to testing the cartridges, it was also a good time to test the programmer for the first time, which was not recognized by two separate machines. Their software download site states that there is a new software update today and we should hold off on downloads, so I will wait for the update to see if that works. If not, then its time to send this programmer back and look for something else. I could pull out the old LabView programmer, but its getting late, and there is beer to be drank.
