h503 nucleo 64 can't upload code - Failed to execute MI command

[KDT85]

Hi, 

Thew board was working fine until i tried to get serial working over virtual COM. I'm not sure what ive done but now im receiving this message

Error in final launch sequence: Failed to execute MI command: load C:\\Users\\Ki\\STM32CubeIDE\\workspace_H503\\blink\\Debug\\blink.elf Error message from debugger back end: Error finishing flash operation

Is there a way to reset the board? or have I bricked it. 

It still talks to the link utility in the IDE and says it needed an update which completed successfully.

Sorry Im a bit lost and would appreciate some guidance. 

I can provide more info if needed

Thanks in advance

then show , what it tells (screenshot).

Thanks so much for the reply

Is this helpful?

Yes.

You see: connects and cpu working fine.

So: st-link ok, cpu ok.

Now check IDE debug settings : also ->

If still not working here in IDE, you wrote some "strange" things to the H503, so try then:

connect with CubeProgrammer again , erase full chip - but be careful, not to do any bad action with the readout protection ! (read in rm first...you can "kill" the chip here - responding never anymore . warning ! )

I have made the changes and I'm getting a different error now. 

Frequency was auto and reset behavior was connect under reset

[KDT85]

I've been playing with these settings and this combination seems to work! 

Thank you so much :)
