Dib2gb - Programmer for Gameboy Cartridges using Jeff's C3 progammer

I made this program in order to program Gameboy cartriges with EEProm using Jeff's C3 cartridge. It has a number of limitations.
  • It's set up for a particular Parallel Port (0x0378). Changing this would require a recompile.
  • It only handles 32K EEPROM - which is all I needed from my flight instrument project.
The package includes an executable along with VC++ source code. Download it here. Also it depends upon a hardware device driver DLL whose source can be downloaded here
