Hello Ohad,

I'd focus on that part because from that description alone I suppose
another binary would have the same problems. Please describe your
symptoms and post a verbose flashrom log.

Flashrom with FTDI support

[Ohad Benjamin]

This is the output I get after compiling and trying to run flashrom.exe with the programmer connected:

flashrom v0.9.7-r1711 on Windows 6.1 (x86)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Unable to open FTDI device: -6 (ftdi_usb_reset failed).
Error: Programmer initialization failed.

This is what I get when the programmer is disconnected:

$ flashrom.exe -p ft2232_spi:type=232H
flashrom v0.9.7-r1711 on Windows 6.1 (x86)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Unable to open FTDI device: -3 (device not found).
Error: Programmer initialization failed.

Thank you,
