Hello. I try to load firmare in STM32F103CBT6 using compiled st-flash.exe utility under windows 8.1.

There is used command: st-flash.exe write ${project_name}.bin 0x08000000

Here is result:

Will test after 23th of August.

OK, enjoy your vacation. Please do the testing, it will help to reduce the amount of open issues of this cool project.

Besides @yeswolf also high-lighting @Almaz1c and @vladiks . See #1000 for other requests how to support this project.

@Nightwalker-87 Will test after 23th of August.

@Nightwalker-87 I use v1.6.0-dirty built from sources (downloaded from releases) with STM32F103RCT6 High-density.

yeswolf on Apr 4, 2020

Yep, finally I can test it. For me it’s

2020-03-29T13:55:22 INFO flash_loader.c: Successfully loaded flash loader in sram
2020-03-29T13:55:22 ERROR flash_loader.c: write error, count == 1023
2020-03-29T13:55:22 ERROR common.c: stlink_flash_loader_run(0x8000800) failed! == -1

always on macOS, so it’s pretty stable. Tired of mass erasing before, want to help %)
