Re: Redefinition of Label error

comcon= 7
That line would certainly cause an error, not sure it's the one you get though. If that's actually what you put in your program (and not a forum typo) we might have found the problem.

Re: Redefinition of Label error

Thanks Henrik,
The original program was for a 16F84 and I’m replacing it with the 16F87 and yes I did change that on MCS and I’m using PBP 3.1, recently upgraded. I did put comcon= 7 in the newer...

Re: So, what are people using for CHEAP ICSP programmers these days?

I like to support the folks at pickitplus, but if you're really strapped for cash there's a similar free version called pickitminus at http://kair.us/projects/pickitminus/
It's not as up to date as...

Re: So, what are people using for CHEAP ICSP programmers these days?

I've used all the Microchip ones, and even a few pickit3 clones and never had an issue with any of them.
If you keep blowing up PK3's then it could be your setup/configuration (not using MCLR,...

Re: So, what are people using for CHEAP ICSP programmers these days?

The price leader for quality would have to be the Snap Programmer from Microchip, $34.09 (USD). It cannot power the target, but other than that, it does everything the PICkit4 does. Oh, it requires...

Re: So, what are people using for CHEAP ICSP programmers these days?

I use Pikprog+ by Elnec for many years (this model is not in production now and is based on parallel port!), Pickit 2 and Pickit3 (original by Microchip) and ICD3.

I can say that never had any...

So, what are people using for CHEAP ICSP programmers these days?

Hey all. I've been using a Kit149 programmer for years running Microburn software. One of them died and I'm still on my second one but it's getting worn and sometimes acts up.
Anyway I have ordered...

Re: MicroCode studio crashes while typing in code.

Again, this has been happening to several users over the years, there are multiple threads here and over on the Melabs forum.
Threads I find with a 2 minute search are from 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017...

Re: MicroCode studio crashes while typing in code.

On paper yes - everything should be checked.
But in real life....
As I've found out, this is more compatibility issue, rather than hardware fault.
12th gen intel processors lower their operating...

Re: MicroCode studio crashes while typing in code.

Well, isn't windows on power up, checking RAM for integrity?

If not, can you replace it with the defect one and run a RAM check utility?
