I hope someone can help me. I am trying to upload a program to an Arduino Mega and it hangs - every time. I have tried everything I can thin of to sort this but been unsuccessful.
What setting do you have under File > Preferences > Compiler Warnings? I tried it and with Compiler Warnings set to None or Default it compiles, but with More or All I have the same problem. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and Arduino 1.6.4.
Try compiling with Arduino 1.6.3, that also made it compile for me. If you download the Windows ZIP file for non admin install you can keep your current installation of 1.6.4 and use 1.6.3 when you need to.
To get to this point I followed the process below:
• Uninstall Arduino
• Re-install to d:\Arduino
• Extract Marlin_E3D_175mm.rar to d:\Arduino\sketch\Marlin175E3D
• Open Arduino
• Sketch folder set to d:\Arduino\Sketch
• File, Sketchbook, Marlin175E3D (it opens)
• Click tick to verify and it hangs after displaying many errors
Yes, it had a few occurrences of !!! and even 4 or more exclamation marks in some places. I have removed them from all modules but it has made no difference, unfortunately.
