I have a netduino 2 with the MF version 4.2. I also have a negative ST7565 LCD. I'm trying to run Fabian Royer's sample app: Netduinohelpers.codeplex.com

The problem is that I can't run it as it's written with MF 4.1.

I tried changing the targeted version under project properties now it come up with these "Check Device hardware" issue.

Help/Fix is needed urgently!

Hi david,

 

Is the helpers library pre-compiled against NETMF 4.1?  If so, can you get the source and change its target framework to 4.2?

That's exactly what I've done but then their is like one of two more issues.
"check device hardware" or something. My best guess is it's a newer version of hardware as well.

Hi david,

 

Double-check the .NET Micro Framework deployment target *version* in all projects in your solution--and make sure that you're not referencing any pre-compiled assemblies (that were compiled against an earlier version of NETMF).

 

Then run MFDeploy and check the "Device Capabilities" of your device (ctrl+shift+c): that should tell you what version of NETMF the board is running.

 

As far as versions of hardware go...we take care of those details for you.  As long as the NETMF assemblies in Visual Studio and the NETMF assemblies on the board match, your Netduino 2 should be good to go.

Forgive me Chris but I'm 14 and this is my first netduino. I have had a good experience with VB.net and a little c#. How do I check the version and tell it about the new hardware.

Ok, it's a clean 4.2. Now what?
