UCP software]]> If I can try to revive this thread instead of starting a new one;  I have a similar problem with one of my two bleepbloop carts;  I had to use Mprog on both;  It made the first one usable, and I successfully backed it up, but the second remains unrecognized by UCP, even though Mprog & Device Manager both recognize it, and it's fully functioning otherwise.

I realize this after picking it up for the first time in over a year & writing a bunch on it; I'd really like to back it up.  Any ideas?

edit: Oh, you mean ucp.ept. Yeah, teh zip files are both called ucp.zip but they are different. ucp.ept is the aforementioned configuration file. You can try to do the mprog procedure if you want. But first, again, see if the cartridge shows up in the device manager.

yeah this, I couldn't find it anywhere, I kept finding this http://chipmusic.org/forums/topic/7139/ … -firmware/ which SAYS it's UCP, but it's really just something for Mprog

MProg and UCP are completely different things. MProg is used to reprogram the settings for the FTDI USB chip on the cartridge. Normally you only need to do this if you encounter certain issues.
UCP (USB cartridge programmer) is what you use for programming the actual cartridge.

There's also really no difference between cartridge revisions. What Jose did was to fake firmware version returned from the cartridge if you're using the new version of UCP. (The actual version is 2.x something, but the program shows 3.0 iirc.)

Anyway, these links should solve your problem.

This is the UCP software.

Also download the latest version of the FTDI USB chip driver from here. I believe this is especially needed for 64-bit versions of Windows. But even otherwise, I recommend upgrading for stability reasons. This is not just a general piece of advice, but the newest version contains a fix in the driver that can crash the computer if disconnecting the cartridge while data is being transferred.

UCP software]]> Hey I have the UCP software for the bleep bloop 2 carts (which is different than the Mprog version google is yielding for bleep bloop 1's). Anyways I'm switching to a new computer, I can't find the install files, and a copy paste doesn't seem to be working for some reason.

Who can hook me up with this software
