'''1. What connectors are used for connecting the MPU modules to the board?'''
For answers to the most frequently asked questions go to the [[FAQ]] page.
 
The connectors for the MPU modules on the STorM32bgc board are [http://www.molex.com/molex/products/family?key=picoblade&channel=products&chanName=family&pageTitle=Introduction Molex picoblade] types with 1.25 mm pitch (for a comparison of various connectors see [http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1493712 here]). They are also known as micro JST 1.25 mm, and it is in fact best to search for this, e.g. on ebay: [http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xmicro+jst+1.25&_nkw=micro+jst+1.25&_sacat=0&_from=R40 micro jst 1.25].
 
'''2. Storing the parameter values to the EEPROM doesn't seem to work'''
 
Please double-check that the correct firmware for your board has been flashed. The problem typically happens then e.g. the firmware for a F103RB is flashed onto a board with a F103RC.
 
'''3. Which drivers are needed for the USB?'''
 
On Win7 the driver is usually installed automatically (this may take few minutes, be patient). The driver, usable also for WinXP, can also be obtained from [http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/FM146/CL1984/SC724/SS1677/PF251168 here].
 
'''4. Flashing with the usb-ttl adapter produces Windows error messages'''
 
If upon flashing you get Windows errors such as mfc110.dll is missing, msvcr110.dll is missing, or application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b), then first check that you're not using an outdated GUI version. Otherwise, you need to install the VC++ runtime libraries. Download vcredist_x64.exe or vcredist_x86.exe depending on your Win system from [//www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679 here], and run the exe file.
