It's not a good idea to edit hex files, they have checksums for each record 
(line). You must have changed it in some way. If you must do it, it's best 
to convert it to raw ASCII hex, edit it, and convert it back to Intel hex or 
whatever the format is. It's quite easy to write simple programs to these 
conversions, you just need the format details.
