Minimig Won't Boot..
« on: July 26, 2011, 04:43:14 AM »
Hey guys,

I dusted off the minimig, and it wont boot. I made sure the SD card is Fat16, included a 1.3 KS ROM and a minimig1.bin file on the SD card. I get 6 flashes which means card is not recognized/found. This SD card worked before, any ideas?

Ok.. Now I am getting a bluescreen.

Bootloader and FPGA versions. What the heck? I downloaded a bootloader from the google code site "Minimig1.bin". What do I do now? Is my FPGA version not matching my bootloader?

Update: I tried flashing the PIC with the YQ090421 release. My MiniMig is stock with no mods. Now I get a black screen after following the instructions. I tried to reflash with TinyBootloader, but all I get now is: "Connected to \\.\COM1 at 115200
  Searching for PIC ...
    "*K" not found, instead found:"ÁÁ". Abort.
      ERROR!"

What the heck did I do?

I can't get Tiny Bootloader recognize the Minimig anymore. Even if I put the jumper on FPGA I get no flashing disk LED even with SD Card out. Is it time for someone to reprogram the PIC, or do I need a new PIC?
