MSP430 / Re: MSP430-JTAG-TINY-V2 Window...

It is unsafe to use those commands since they permanently disable the driver signature enforcement. Better use the GUI method to disable the "Windows Driver Signature enforcement" temporarily. Search online for "how to disable Windows Driver Signature enforcement Windows 11". It basically is from:

- Open Settings on Windows 11.

- Click on System.

- Click the Recovery tab.

- Click the Restart now button for the "Advanced startup" setting under the "Recovery options" section.

- Click on Troubleshoot.

- Click on Advanced options.

- Click on Startup Settings.

- Click the Restart button.

- Press "F7" or the "7" key to select the Disable driver signature enforcement option.

The drivers are unsigned so same requirements apply to Windows 10 and Windows 11 installations - first temporary disable "driver signature enforcement" and then install the drivers. Disabling the "driver signature enforcement" is kind of tricky, but there are many guides on how it can be done manually. After the driver installation the unit should be listed as "Olimex Tiny v2.00 JTAG for MSP430 (COMX)". If it gets listed differently you haven't pointed to the proper drivers.

Remember to copy-paste the latest dll files to the proper folder of your IDE.

Please also notice that MSP430-JTAG-TINY-V2 is compatible with software tools that have support for MSP430 Debuck Stack version 2 (MSP430.dll v2). Not compatible with newest versions of IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430 (6.x.x and after) Not compatible with newest versions of Code Composer Studio (6.1.3 and after).

A64 / Re: HDMI: A64 Board not detect...
Last post by LubOlimex - August 18, 2025, 08:47:09 AM
Quite unlikely to be hardware issue since HDMI output gets tested empirically here.

What is the state of the Ethernet/PHY reset jumper between the two boards? Is it the same state?

If the jumper is set the same, then it is probably related to the state of video output set by the script, run olinuxino-display and try DISABLE option and reboot, if it doesn't work better then try all the other HDMI options one by one and see if any of them improves the behavior.

Let us know if the issue persists.

This is fine. Performance won't be affected. No need of adding anything just make sure that you use the Li-Po battery connector and double check + and - markings on the board so you don't connect the battery in reverse. The connector is not standard and it is possible to short-circuit the board if you don't ensure + of battery goes to the + connector on the board.

If it works with the original FabGL board it should work with ESP32-SBC-FabGL. For ZX-Spectrum also check this blog post:

Are you sure this is the proper macro for the clock "#define ETH_CLOCK_MODE    ETH_CLOCK_GPIO17_OUT"? I feel like it was ETH_CLK_MODE but maybe they changed it recently.

Maybe check our ESP-IDF 5.3 project for the Ethernet: https://github.com/OLIMEX/ESP32-POE/tree/master/SOFTWARE/ESP-IDF/ESP32_PoE_Ethernet_IDFv5.3

Last post by mikasabaggins - August 14, 2025, 06:55:10 AM
I am planning to do a mobile project using the OLinuXino board, so I am considering powering it directly from a Li-Ion battery instead of using an adapter or USB power. I wonder if anyone has tried this. Do I need to add any protection circuit or charging, and will the performance be affected much?

I'm coming to the conclusion that contrary to the information on Olimex's website, there is no usb support in the firmware.  I'm wondering if anyone has built the firmware themselves and added some additional software images? I don't have the means to build it myself so I'm just relying on what I can download.  It would be nice to have more than one program to demonstrate.

MSP430 / MSP430-JTAG-TINY-V2 Windows 11...
Last post by bcsmmc - August 06, 2025, 11:01:39 PM
Hello,

Has anyone been able to install the driver in windows ll.  I have followed the old thread https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=5283.0

I disabled Secure Boot.  Ran commands:

bcdedit /set nointegritychecks on
bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

When I attempt to manually install the driver by have disk option it still says the driver is not signed and will not install it.  What else can I do to override it?
