Nyet,

Thanks for trying.  I put this into cmd just as you have it, it didn't work. 

I'll just stick with the other tool.  It is what it is.


No, you really need to learn what CD does and how it works. "it is what it is" is a horrible attitude if you really want to DIY this stuff.

I will. I meant that in the mean time while I figure out why this isn't working under the normal cmd, I can use the other tool.  That and I don't want irritate you anymore than necessary. Smiley   Gotta find read the tutorials and information to feed the brain so I can pick up on all the abbreviations and tune parameters classifications in here.

Open CMD as an administrator.  So, Start, search for CMD, right-click and Open as Administrator.

Type:
cd C:\Users\Otto>C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\

cd is "change directory".

The cursor should now read:
C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\>

Does it read this?!

If it does, now type:
me7check 8d0907551m-0002.bin

What does that do?

I found the issue, the line reads as such, and with the orange colored section, it would say, "the system cannot find path to specified"


cd "C:\Users\Otto>"C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\

So after looking at the line, I see the "C" drive is duplicated.  I removed it, and wrote the line like this,

cd C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\

Then after,
me7check 8d0907551m-0002.bin and got this for read out.

c:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master>me7check 8d0907551m-0002.bin

IT WORKS!!!

Thanks to Adam an Nyet for the help.  Also some sleep. ha.  On to the next hurdle, learning the tuning parameters and how to tune them and all else that's needed.  More reading!

Again, thanks to the both of you.
and Nyet, thanks for putting up with it, I owe you a beer sometime.

Sorry, I meant to type that the first time.  I was using your quote as a base for a file path and never removed some of it, it shouldn't have been in there.  So yeah, you're correct in removing the bit you did. Smiley

Well done, always use this before you flash a file; its better to be safe than to be sorry.

You can also just....

Save the exe and file in the default directory

"C:\Users\yournamehere"

Rename the program sum.

Then your command becomes

sum 8D0907551M-0002.bin

Or even rename the file 551M

then your command is a blistering

sum 551M.bin

Very very easy.

Adam, thank you, no worries. Sleep tends to help make things that seems normal to become outstanding when you've actually not stared at the damn problem all day trying to figure out why it's not functioning.  haha.. sometimes just best to step away for a while and come back later.  or the epiphany while trying to sleep suddenly pops in. lol

ddillenger, thank you.  You're correct and have been planning to make the change to an easier directory.  But while having help for you good folks, I didn't want to change up the variables and create a larger problem by confusing everyone a random directory change. lol  Figured once it was all ironed out, then I'd make the necessary change to make life (fingers life) substantially smoother.

Again to all... THANK YOU!!!  I'm still a noob and have a long road to learning a lot here. That and haven't been playing with the puter for a good while in this type of stuff so the memory of certain things is a little rusty.  Gotta get wrapped around that wiki so I'm good on terms and proper understanding of everything.  well as close as I can be.

Download these if you want.

Place them in whatever folder your file is stored in.  Run the bat file, answer the questions.  I've assumed your default file name is 8d0907551m-0002.bin and editted the bat appropriately.

If you want to change your file name, edit the bat with Notepad with whatever name you want.

It's pretty easy, and it means you don't have to do cmd every time.

Everyone should know DOS who uses Windows, seriously it's a hindrance.

Call it a terminal suppose, generally you can type programname (tab auto completes) /?" or --h for help.

dir - directory listing (/s) will check the subfolders too
cd - change directory
set - envionment variables
pop
cls
blah

It's 100% worth learning.

This chap knows DOS Smiley from  quick look I'd always be anal and check for the exe then exit if it wasn't present though and I've never seen if used like that.  That's a new one on me and I go back to 1992.  Set I have never used
 like that either Smiley choice I suppose.

Can play about with it as you will, but I always just copy me7check and my bat into whatever directory, it's not designed for fool-proof distribution, just a quick grab for me to verify.

But it took two minutes to write and meh, it'll do. Smiley

Everyone should know the Drag and Drop "trick" with the DOS prompt in windows.

1) Open up "CMD.exe".  The easy way to do this is press the windows key on your keyboard and just type "CMD" and press enter.  CMD prompt is now open.

2) Open up a file explorer and navigate to the folder with ME7Check.exe.  Drag and drop the exe onto the CMD window.  This will type the full path of ME7Check.exe into the CMD window.

3) Steal underpants

4) On the cmd window, hit the space bar.  this will add a space between the path of ME7Check.exe and your bin.

5) Open up a file explorer and navigate the folder that contains your bin.  Drag and drop your bin onto the CMD window.

6) Press enter

7) ? ?? ??

8 ) Profit.

Meh, mine's faster.  You should be working from the same bin every time - so shouldn't need to be checking random bins in random folders.  So, place the bat in the folder you work from and run that every time.

I could bash one out in the time you've dragged and dropped.  I could also have used my bat file approx. 30 times by the time you've done that.

I agree with you 100%.  But, 9 out of 10 people have no clue when is comes to CMD, or using their keyboard in general.

I made a vijyah for ya'll.
