Hi! Im using MCSP with PBP 2.46
I load the correct bootloader in a 16f876 Chip and Uploading my PBP Code works fine.
Now I want to make a serial communication to my pc with the same cable I use for the bootloader.
My Problem ist, that the PIC just is working, when I press the " ICD run" Button, without that, nothing happens.
Is there a possibility to make the PIC run with Bootloader without the serial cable connected?
As I see, with the Bootloader Option, the PIC needs Serial Communication with MCSP to run.
So I can let run the PIC, or Write my Code Inside with a Progger and make then my Serial Experiments, but both at a time is not possible, am I right?

You programmed the PIC using the "ICD" Compile/Program button. That's why
it only works with the ICD.

Try using the standard Compile/Program button.
