[chirp_users] BF 888S Failure To Program
Using chirp I get message "An error Occurred" Radio Refuses to enter programing mode when trying to download radio settings. Works OK with ZT-Vrom Miklor. I had software on old computer running Win XP and all worked fine. Now on new computer with Windows 7 we have this problem. I have good driver and good cable. Are others experiencing this problem also using windows 7?

If your cable shows Prolific, roll your cable driver to 3.2.0.0. See if that works.

The “Error has occurred” message usually means that you plugged the cable into a different USB port. The driver does not follow the cable. If you plug the cable into a different port, Win7 will load the Newest driver to that slot, which will not work.
Refer to the FAQ section at the bottom of http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php
I hope this helps.

I am using old driver. It seems related to Windows 7 as it previously worked OK with XP.

It's not a driver issue, he appears to have the same problem as I did, the cable works fine for the uv5r, just gets this error on the 888, multiple computers for me, I downloaded the Miklor 888 software which sees the radio fine, upload/download fine, proving the driver is not the issue, else the other software would not see it Heck spend 22$ get a pair of the radios and I'm gonna bet most folks have the same issue

I didn't have any trouble with mine, but it's been 3 months since I did the programming, so it would have been a different version of CHIRP.

I used the same port. I have 8 radios and they all act the same on Windows 7 and all worked fine on XP.
