ARM: GET SARM.DLL NOT FOUND DURING INSTALL

Information in this article applies to:

• MDK-ARM Version 2.50 and 3.00

PROBLEM

I just installed the Keil Microcontroller Development Kit on my new computer. When I start the µVision Debugger the following error appears:

C:\Keil\ARM\BIN\SARM.DLL Not Found

The SARM.DLL file is in the C:\KEIL\ARM\BIN folder.  What causes this error?  How do I fix it?

CAUSE

You are actually missing a Microsoft file.  Some Windows installations do not automatically include the file MSVCR71.DLL but SARM.DLL uses this DLL. When this file is missing, you get the above error.

RESOLUTION

Download the MSVCR71.DLL file from the Attached Files section below. Unzip and extract it to your C:\KEIL\UV3\ folder.
