Hi everyone, I need a lot of help, I got MCSP 3.0.0.5, PBP 2.50 on a machine running Vista.
First, when compiling the code I was getting a "fatal out memory error", I uninstalled both applications and reinstalled again, now I when I try to compile I get "file access denied" and no compiler installed.
Please someone help before I loose all my hair.
Thank you.
Probably didn't install the software with admin rights.Quote:

Don't put all your files in the "My Documents" folder. Put the stuff closer to the root.
Sometimes these programs don't like file path's that are over about 60-ish characters long.
I tried that still have the same error message, thank for the input, been out of town, sorry for the long delay.
I have the same setup as you and it all went on fine.
If you have tried installing with admin rights and tried running with admin rights, the only other thing I can think of is.....
Are you running Vista 64 bit? I have the 32 bit version. I know the 64 bit is a lot more strict when it comes to program rights etc. Also did you install to the standard program directory or did you select a new one.
Other than that, I dont have any other ideas. The file access denied does seem to be a rights managment issue, I do have a Vista 64 machine but the CD/DVD drive is out. If I can find a way to install the progs, I will give it a go and see if they run.

I'm running Vista 32, I removed both programs and reinstalled again, still have the same error, getting a bit frustrated , don't know what else to do.

I removed the MCS+ link to pbp and when I tried to compile something it did a search and found it - so if it is still saying no compiler etc, it is either not in the standard directory or it is in the progrram files folder and MCS+ does not have the rights to access it.
Here are some questions so I know whats going on a little better:
Where is pbp installed?
Where is MCS+ installed?
Did you install MCS+ using admin rights? or
Did you run MCS+ using admin rights?
Are you an admin user on the PC?
Hang in there, well get it.

Maybe this will give you an idea
what I have is
C:\PBP
C:\Program Files\Mecanique\MCSP
and I instlled MCS+ with adnim rights.
again thank you

Do you by chance have MCS set to use MPASM and do not have MPLAB installed ?
OK, I have messed around with my setup a little.
I have tried moving my pbp folder to different locations and can not get the same error.
MCS+ runs fine with and without admin rights here.
The only way is to uninstall pbp and try to compile - then I get "unable to find compiler' error.
When you compile, does a search window for the compiler pop up or do you get the error right away?
Also are you still getting the file access denied error?
Sorry, no answer yet....

I have MCSP set to use MPASM, MPLAB is not installed.

For a troublefree environment I wouldn’t use Vista in the next three or four years, just stick to XPP until enough fixes and updates are available!
I have seen quite a few reasons to stay away from Vista!
