Silabs C8051F5xx IDE Users?

[digsys]

This is a long shot, but worth a try. After 45+ yrs of coding, I'm afraid, the ol' memory is playing havoc (diabetes doesn't help either). I used to fly along with code.
I've used these series MPUs for a long time (my favourites, as per previous post), but have been away from them for 4 yrs.
Re-installed the Silabs IDE, and now confronted with all manner of weird errors ! The Silabs <> Keil IDS was always "buggy", and the licensing a mess, but it seems(?) it's worse now ?
I've tried the SIlabs forum, but answers are slow and short, and aren't helping much. All the techs we had, are all gone, or not available.
This is not a code rewrite, just need (paid) help working out the stupid errors and getting the IDE working properly. You'd need to be familiar with it though .. I'm open to suggestions.
The ideal would be a "local" who is also after part-time work (other projects), or technology exchange. PS: It is all assembler. No C allowed :-)

If I may ask - How long have you been using this series MPUs? What IDE setup do you have? Silabs IDE + Keil uVision? or the newer SimpleStudio etc
Do you write in C / Assembler / mixed? Do you use many .INC files?
I've used many of the MPUs for 10+ yrs, always had odd error messages, temperamental licensing issues, I just ignored them and they always worked.
After 4yrs away, somethings changed. Maybe default setups? Not sure.

This sounds as if you're trying to use an old project in a new IDE.
Assuming that it isn't possible to dig up the old IDE, the most reliable way to get it to work is to start with a new, empty project, and to re-add all the source files.

I forgot to mention Simplicity Studio is version 4, But I was working with prior versions all works, 8 bit 8051 derivatives including efm8, the typical project have something like 20 to 30 files, all based on an empty project.  The thing just works, and can even estimated power usage
