FNG here, trying to read and learn as much as I can before attempting to tune and flash or even ask questions that already have answers to, but this one doesn't.... (gotta start somewhere right.. haha)

After trying cmd line, ME7Checksum opens but disappears right away. Followed what Matt Danger post about having the files in the home directory, it's there, failed results.  Then I tried infinkc's EasyCheckSum tool.  Same thing happened, this is on Win7.   Huh

Any ideas?

sounds like your just trying to open "me7checksum.exe" by clicking on it but what you need to do is open up cmd line and then drag me7checksum into the black screen of cmd then just hit enter. hope that makes sense and helps.

That's what I did on both tries.  First was with cmd line, it opened but closed.  then I tried the second method, dragged the file into the cmd screen and tapped enter, it would run it's course (faster that you can actually read anything) then closed again. I managed to get a screen capture of if just before it closed.  (fast fingers, what can I say)  Grin

That isn't how you are supposed to execute a command from the command line.

FROM THE ORIGINAL POST (which you clearly didn't bother reading)

P.S. it's a command line tool.
Call it from a command window, e.g. cmd.exe or a cygwin shell.
If called without arguments you will see the usage:
C:\Program Files\ME7\bin>ME7Check.exe
Open a cmd.exe window, cd to the directory where the program is:

Code:
C:\> cd \path\to\program

and type the name of the program.

Code:
C:\path\to\program> me7check

or, type

Code:
C:\path\to\program\me7check

nyet,

Thanks for the unnecessary banter.  I did in fact read the OP.  I read it multiple times to be sure what I was trying in cmd was correct and before bringing the problem public, and it is/was.

Here, to give you an idea without doubt of how I'm doing it.  This is where I have my bin file and ME7Check (program only). 

C:\Users\Otto\

Now I type,
ME7Check 8D0907551M-00001, in front of my "path", as such, C:\Users\Otto\ME7Check 8D0907551M-0001

and that prompts the UAC, I select yes, it then opens another cmd window briefly and then closes, and only by capture, I can see the info. As before it never gave me the "File ok"

Now, if there's something else wrong, then please by all means mention it. But lets keep it a learning aspect instead of the other spectrum.

Also to try something else, I put the file inside the "program files folder" to see how that would play out while following what the OP had and what you post.  didn't work.  another thing I noticed was after trying different methods of command in cmd, it wrote the ME7Check file to zero kb when it would error out odd, don't why or more so don't know the explanation as to why it can do that.  But I have the original ME7Check in another folder anyhow.

Where I have it now, seems to check the file (as you can see from my capture), however not actually leave me with the unusable results when it closes by itself.  The first capture shot, shows it didn't give "File ok" line.

Thanks for your help. Smiley

There should be no new window when you run it from the command line (unless you are running a shortcut and not the original file)

Perhaps UAC is causing the problems; that isn't how command line programs are supposed to work.

Thanks Nyet, you're right.  I went back into the original folder containing ME7Check, and pasted the bin there. tried under "easychecksum" and it worked.  also tried in cmd and it worked.  No more disappearing.  Curious though, is there a limit of times you can check, kind of like a cache?  My apologies if this was answered already.  Reason being after figuring out the right way to do it.  I came up with this error.

C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\ME7Sum-master\me7check: binary file
 8D0907551M-0001 has not correct length (is 0x0 bytes long, 0x80000 or 0x100000
bytes expected)

Also tried this,
C:\Users\Otto>C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\ME7Sum-master\ME7Chec
k >8d0907551m-0001
ME7Check v1.12 (c) mki, 06/2004-05/2012
Usage: ME7Check <bin-file>


Went back to be sure the binary was still the correct size, and it is. even tried copying over another file, same thing.

Thank you Nyet

C:\Users\Otto>C:\Users\Otto\Documents\Tuning\ME7Sum-master\ME7Sum-master\ME7Check >8d0907551m-0001

Why would you do that? Do you have ANY idea what the > does? Hint: not something you want.

No, there is no "cache" - something is wrong with the way you are using the program, or you have file permission problems, etc. What does ME7Sum report?

This is WAY beyond just helping you with me7check; you need to learn how the command line works.

At LEAST cut and paste the output of "dir".

Oops? .... hahah.  after a quick search of what that does, realize that wasn't good.  The bright side.. I didn't mess anything up that can't be reversed.  Sorry. 

In regards to permissions, do you mean of the bin file or ME7check program?

I did copy paste from the dir. That's how I made sure the dir was correct.  Smiley 

Why would it say binary length incorrect?

The report was what I posted of the output. However strange, EASYCHECKSUM works fine.

Special thanks to setzi62 for the checksum program.

With .bin or without .bin in the filename?

PLEASE do a dir and show what is there. This is definitely because you don't really understand cmd.exe, not a problem with the program.

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.
