[Question]
I just got back from a customer that was complaining that the imx53 mfg tool’s USB driver overwrote or corrupted the imx35’s ATK driver???
Anyone else have this issue? How can they get around it?
[Answer]
You can switch back and forth between the driver the ATK uses and the driver the MfgTool uses in DeviceManager.
Hi Carl,
i.MX23 needn't special driver to be installed, it is HID device.
If you mentioned i.MX53, then mfgtool already support Win 7.
We discussed Linux version Mfgtool, but seems we have no plan on this in short term.
Hi Stanley,
For the i.MX23 we are having to do the same in Vista re run an XP virtual machine to get this manufacturing tool to work with i.MX23 recovery. Is the manufacturing tool intended to be supported in later versions of windows? How about Linux? We will be relying on the USB port to do our production floor programming using the manufacturing tool so the faster and simpler the better.
Thanks, Chris! I believe it is quite useful for some customers.
It reminds me another case I met recently: customers want to use ATK in Win7 which doesn't support ATK driver, so they tried it in a WinXP virtual machine and it worked. This can be treaded as a workaround way in Win 7.
