Unable to debug template

Hi all,

I'm having trouble getting the template as is provided in the SDK to work. I'm using the DA14580 and my PC is running Win8. Configurations I tried without success: Keil 5.12 and Keil 4.74, SDK versions 3.0.8.0 and 3.0.4.0, Expert devkit and Pro devkit.

I'll explain what happens. For this scenario, I've used Keil 4.74 and SDK 3.0.4.0 but equal results when using Keil 5.12 and SDK 3.0.8.0. On my first attempt, I followed all instructions in UM-B-014 (SDK Expert manual V1.5). That failed so I decided to compile the tempate as-is and start the debugger just to check if the template is actually working:
1. I made a copy of the SDK and opened the fh_project_template.uvproj
2. I corrected two of the include paths since I installed Keil in D:\Programs\Keil in stead of C:\Keil.
3. I followed the instructions in paragraphs 4.4.1.5 to 4.4.1.13 in UM-B-014. I did need to patch the uvopt-file as is described in appendix A since Keil crashed when accessing the J-Link settings. I payed extra attention to the memory mapping settings, they are set to the exact values as mentioned in the manual.
4. I compiled the project -> no errors, 2 warnings.
5. I start the debugger. It says I'm running in evaluation mode, OK.

So far, so good. Now for the annoying bit on which I wasted almost two days. I encounter different situations, but the program won't work in any of these.
Situation 1: The Debugger starts and shows the startup-file, program starts at line 146 in the startup file (boot_vextors.s line 146: LDR R0, =SystemInit). When I step through the code, it either steps through SystemInit and never enters the main-function so it seems, looks like it runs in an infinite loop. Stopping execution doesn't give me a clue what it is doing.
Situation 2: As situation 1, but now in stead of running in an infinite loop (or doing something else which is invisible to me), a hard fault occurs :/
Situation 3: On *many* occurrences, the debugger won't even start because Keil _crashes_ when I start the debugger! Sometimes it does start debugging after restarting the program, sometimes it requires deleting the uvopt-file, start Keil, quit it so it generates a new one, patch the uvopt-file so it won't crash when accessing the J-link settings.

The peripheral example does work. The proximity_fh program suffers from the same issues.

有人知道吗what is going on? Memory Map settings shpuld be OK since I followed the devkit's manual, I presume. What about the initialization file (target options ->debugger), can I use the sysram_case23.ini provided with the template on the devkit?
