Hello.
been around the thread alot today. almost all of the posts in regard to this issue have to do with the EPIC serial programmer. I'm using the USB programmer. difference no?.
i tried many suggestions to no avail. i still get this error at 0000.
one suggestion was to read the chip first. ok. so i read the chip, that worked, and then i tried to program it and voila! of course, i just programmed the garbage that was read from the chip. bunch of zeros. so, at least the chip will program! but still, MY code is not sticking...
