    Update about my situation. Need further help please guys.
    Ok so I found out that board is all fine and none of the components burnt and power is passing by normally. Only and I guess main issue is that software been wiped out from its memory. My mate is trying to help me and he said to me that if we can somehow flash this board with software it came with, can do the trick.
    I'm gonna give it a go and if no luck then I will buy that cnc shield board.
    Anyone would have any idea to flash this damn thing? 😢

    What software was supplied with the machine?
    Was it a download, or was it supplied on a disk?

    The reason I'm asking, is if we can see what software/files you have, we'll be able to give more precise help, which should get you up and running quicker.

    Were you supplied a pre-configured .hex file with the machine?
    V1.1 is the latest version, however I'm wondering why the PCB specifies 0.9. If you got sent a .hex file with the machine, I'd use that, as it's likely to be already configured for the machine.

    I was going by the link posted previously. I don't see any reason why a newer than 0.9 version wouldn't work unless there's something specific about the configuration, but see my previous post (that I made while you were most likely typing this reply!) about what software/files you have.
