Unable to load driver

[matejdro]

What did I screw up here?

Code: Select all

leJOS NXJ> Error: Failed to load USB comms driver.
leJOS NXJ> Caused by lejos.pc.comm.NXTCommException: Cannot load NXTComm driver
leJOS NXJ>    at lejos.pc.comm.NXTCommFactory.newNXTCommInstance(NXTCommFactory.java:110)

It gives that error at eclipse and bat files.

Using 32bit eclipse, 32bit JDK, latest lego driver. I can see NXT in device manager under "LEGO Devices".

Lego Driver isn't installed properly. Please reinstall Fantom Driver 1.1.3 found here:

Even though you say that it is already installed, the message "C:\Program Files (x86)\leJOS NXJ\lib\pc\native\windows\x86\jfantom.dll: Can't find dependent libraries" suggest that the Fantom driver isn't installed proberly. Most likely, the fantom.dll (without a j) is not found. If reinstallting the Fantom drivers doesn't help, use the Dependency Walker, open jfantom.dll with it and post a screenshot:

Which version of Windows are you using?

Windows 7 x64

I think MSVCR71.dll is the DLL that's missing. On 32 Bit Windows 7 it should reside in c:\windows\system32 and on Windows 64Bit it should reside in c:\windows\syswow64.
Try to find a copy of that file on your system and try copying it to c:\windows\syswow64. I was unable to find an official installer my microsoft. Only dubious sources on the net.

It worked. Thanks!
