Hello! I'm trying to download the image to my minipov. I'm using Processing 2.2.1. My minipov is plugged in and has been recognized by my computer. It is turned on. When I go to download the test image to my minipov I get a message reading "Done! 'avrdude' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.".
Another thing that might make a difference is that when I initially run the sketch I get an error message that reads "Oct 02, 2016 9:53:26 AM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init>
WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5." Could this have anything to do with it?
Thank you!
. When I turn my minipov on, however, I do not see the image I downloaded; I only see the standard lights that show up by default. MiniPOV4 Kit - Image not downloading properly

I also forgot to mention that the lights on my minipov don't blink like they should when something has been downloaded to it.

Were you able to resolve this? I have the same issue with the same warning.

Re: MiniPOV4 Kit - Image not downloading properly
The resolution to this issue is to download and install AVR. There are instructions for Windows here: http://www.ladyada.net/learn/avr/setup-win.html
With WinAVR installed the instructions for downloading a new image work properly.

Great find, thank you.
I've been asking for help without a response.
