dt int timer1 ignores offset value

[mackrackit]

Hi,
FYI, I run PICMultiCalc on Win7-64bit without any problems, no compatibility mode set or anything.

/Henrik.

Me too. And I can not find msstdfmt.dll on my machine??

im using 32 bit windows 7. maybe thats the prob..

I also have win7 32 bit and no problems there either.
Maybe you have a bad copy of multicalc?

When I get back to the shop later to day I will upload the copy I have.

DDDvvv,
You can go here to get the version of MultiCalc that I have. Not sure if there is more than on version... This one works on win7, both 32 and 64 bit machines.

Just saw your article on driving a stepper in hardware mode, missed that thread.
Cool project!!! Now something else to play with that I do not have time for...
Thanks!!!

That's a really old version Dave.

Here's the latest ... v1.3.1

WOW! I have an antique!!! Custom Character generator on the new one too!!!
I really need to get out more...
Thanks Darrel!

The new one works for me on win7, 32 and 64 bit machines with the exception of the custom character generator on the 64 bit. Says I am missing FM20.DLL.
Here is what Micro Soft says about it, but I did not try their solution.

Why the 32 bit machine is "OK" with it is a mystery to me. I have Micro Soft Security Essentials and auto updates turned on for both machines.

thanks for all the replies. i got both picmulticalc, 1.0.0 and 1.3.1 , and i still get the same missing file error. im thinking that it has something to do with the windows 7 version that im using. (upgraded from winxp running on an old computer)

i have a winxp notebook that runs the calc perfectly, so im using that for now. thanks for the help.

mr mackrackit, yes, the stepper project was interesting. i should have named it "hardware pwm stepper drive" . however, i did not put alot of r&d on that project because of two reasons: i moved on to servo dc motor control, and i use the sla 7078 stepper driver for all my stepper interfacing. hopefully, someone improves it to something practical.
