Cypress At2Lp Rc42 Software How To Effectively Use

One of the best reasons to get started with Driver Detective is that unless youre a computer expert, it can be very easy to confuse both what drivers to install, and how best to install them.

The word cypress is also used as a descriptor for the angiosperm vine in the bindweed family Convolvulaceae, known as the cypress vine Ipomoea quamoclit.

Manufactjring are the sole property of their specific brands and manufacturers, and as such if you ever install their drivers using a driver update utility you downloaded from this site please understand that you will have to adhere to these manufacturers specific legal terms.

Cypress At2Lp Rc42 Software How To Effectively Use

Device drivers function as a set of instructions that tell your computer how to effectively use your Cypress device.

However, if you accidentally install the wrong driver, then your computer manufscturing be executing the wrong directions.

Run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter to automatically try and fix the problem and check if that helps.

Driver Detective also includes functionality to easily create a back up of your device drivers which can be used if your Internet connection fails.

One of the reasons that Driver Detective is a computer professional favorite is because of its support staff.

Often, thirty-party driver program writers use their fake drivers as delivery mechanisms for spyware, virusesand other kanufacturing of malware.

Ido not know if this is the same program I refer to in this article or adifferent version because I have nothing to test it on.) I have placed a copy of thisversion here, in caseit disappears from MvixUSA.

Several manufacturers make an external hard drive, CD Rom drive, or other peripheral that comes in an external box utilizinga chip produced by Cypress.

The Cypresschip works in conjunction with a programmable EEPROM (electricallyerasable programmable read-only memory)chip provided by the OEM manufacturer.

This chip contains theinformation your computer needs to identify and talk to the externaldrive.

If you experience a powersurge, power failure, or justturn your external device off at the wrong moment, the EEPROM chip willlose its programming.

Then, the external device wont workanymore.

This is according toa Cypress engineer who contacted me 31609 requesting a correction tothis page.

I originally referred to the problem chip as theCypress chip, but apparently the relevant information is stored in asecond chip added along side the Cypress chip.

Instead, you will see this prompt: finding newhardware cypress at2lp rc42 prompt.

This is how theunprogrammed external box identifies itself to your computer.

Warning At least two four people have reported to me that after asuccessfulrun of the program primer.exe their computer no longer recognizedtheir external drive box at all (not even as cypress at2lp rc42) Iimagine there maybe some way to reset the PROM and try again, but not having access tothese drives, I do not know the answer Warning-- Seagate External Drives -- It appears that the abovewarningapplies to at least to Seagate drives.

Email forwards ofSeagatetech support responses indicate they view theCypress problem as adrive failure.

If under warranty, they will offer to exchangethedrive and also will offer data recovery services for a fee.

Note, itseems likely the drive will work if you remove it from the external boxand put it in a computer or external box that is working.) Forthe above reason, I personally would avoid Seagate external drives.

As far as I know, there is nothing wrong with Seagate drives,themselves -- and although I dont remember for sure, I think the driveI have in my own external box is actually a Seagate.

I have had bad personalexperiencewith Western Digital drives, so I wont purchase them.

Perhapstheir quality control has improved since my bad experiences, I dontknow, but I had two drives that failed much more quickly than any otherdrives I have purchased..continued fromtop.

Unfortunately, your computer will not find an appropriate driver.

Even worse, as far as I have been able to determine, the equipmentmanufacturers dont provide a help solution for this problem.

Because Cypress doesnot program the EEPROM or build the external drive you purchase, theirwebsite referseveryoneback to the equipment manufacturer.

Thesolution: The low-tech solution is to remove your device from theexternalbox and install it either inside a desktop computer or in a newexternal box.

External USB boxes for hard drives, etc., canbepurchased online from various places for about US25.00.

Andrew, from UK purchased a Freecom Classic SL USB 160 GBexternal drive.

He later bought a Navigator external USB drive case,put the 160 GB external drive in it, and it worked.

TheNavigatorunit cost him UK 25.00.

Hes tried other drives in the Freecom external box, but theydont work in the box either.

He says the Navigator didnt require anysupplementalsoftware, it was immediately recognized by his laptop computer.

Personally, I would not want to buy a new external boxeverytimethe EEPROM lost its programming, so I am fortunate the software worksforme.
