Recovering a problematic Netduino

Hey all,

I attempted to use my Netduino board which I have not touched in a year or so and had some major difficulties.

PC connecting to:   windows7 - 64 bit

After trying many things I finally decided to follow the instructions and try a complete hard reset.  I jumped the 3.3V to the pad and then used SAM-BA v2.12 to send the bootloader to the netduino.  I used version 4.1.0.6 I found in one of the posts.  This seemed to work ok.  I also installed MF SDK version 4.1 and Netduino SDK version 4.1.0 64 bit.

Now, I read the next step is to flash the firmware using the MFDeploy tool, however, whenever I attempt to do a ping ... it hangs and eventually comes back saying unable to connect or something like that.  When I select USB in the tool though, it does show the Netduino.

It should be noted that when connected, both LEDs are lit constantly and I do see the Netduino in the device manager as "Netduino" under USB controllers.

Anyone have any suggestions?  I am all out of ideas. 

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the suggestion.  It worked like a charm.
