[Quote] I set it up with the hex files for exactly this reason, this way you do not have to touch a line of code unless you want to LOL You simply need to run that file from the command line to see what is going on. The easiest way for this is at least with windows 7 to hold shift and right click in the folder the file is stored in. There should be an option in the menu to “open command window here”. Click that and it should come up with a command prompt with a blinking line and the folder location you have the files stored in in the top left of the window. Then simply type flash25bistro.bat and press enter. It will then run AVR dude and try to flash the file. It will tell you if there is an error or if it was successful in the messages that follow. If it was disappearing instantly before, then it most likely had an error, this is usually a connection error for the USBASP. [quote]
Okay, I hate to let problems like this whip me but I've learned when to step back and get help.
So sorry for being a newb but I can't figure out how to get the 2 new hex files to flash to the attiny.
I can open the C source file with Note ++ and copy the guts of it then open studio 7 and paste it in there following comfychairs https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/24991 but when I click build I get 2 errors.
How do I just use the hex file with avrdude?
