I definitely got problems when writing 64 or 32 byte chunks on an LPC2129. After some experimentation I found I could only get reliable behaviour with 512 bytes (didn't test bigger). Typically, I'd see a few wrong bits out of 64kB. This might have been fixed in a more recent bootloader. --- In lpc2000@yahoogroups.com, "johnthomasedwardtimm" <area51@a...> wrote: > > Robert, > > Thanks for the reply.
