I'm trying out my first PIC18F1330 and attempting to program a simple blink code with a PICKit 3.
I can't even get past first programming of the device - the PICKIT3 tells me that I'm getting the following error: Address 0x300006, read 0x81, expected 0x89
I tried another device - same thing. I've never had problems this early in the process before - anybody have any ideas?
Are you sure you've compiled the program for the correct chip?
Address 300006h is the CONFIG4L register.
On the 18F1330, bit-3 that's it's complaining about, is "Unimplemented" and always reads "0".
It would not be able to program that register as 0x89.
Double checked, and ran through everything again PBP 2.6 set to 18F1330.

I'm using the PICKit 3 to program, using the application it came with - version 1.0.0.0 / JAM version 01.28.18-00 / RS:01.15.11 / AP:01.12.04-05
If I look at how it's interpreting 4L, it labels it "nostring" and is showing bit 3 as configurable, but always a 1. If I write it to 0, it comes back when I try to program.. A bug in the PICKit3 perhaps?
Old software.
I don't have the latest version either, but it is more recent than yours and it maintains that bit as a 0.
Try downloading the latest software ...

That resolved it - thanks Darrel!
