I have a tool that will allow you to download hex files directly to
any target that is available as

  http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~jayas/esdk/files/lpc/sill.exe

Although it was to server a different purpose, you can use it to load
any Intel-Hex formatted file into on-chip FLASH or RAM. To program the
contents of file.hex to target on com8 at 9600 baud, and with crystal
frequency of 12MHz, the command line is:

  sill -l com8:9600 -x 12000 file.hex

It understands LPC's vector checksum requirement and does this when
you are loading into flash sector zero.

I would be intrested to know you encounter similar problems with this
tool.
