I been using 16Fx for some time now, and now I wanted to use something more powerful, I looked up a nice PIC, 18F4620, and checked that it was PBP compatible, yes, and ordered.

First I tried to just recompile a program written for 16F877A, since they are basically pin compatiblie, and it was a very easy program.

BUT.. pbpw says that MP does not support 18F family and that I should use mpasm instead.

First problem, mpasm does not exist.. I reinstall the latest version of mplab IDE, still doesnt work, google a bit, set the path to include mpasm catalog, but still no go, there are no mpasm.exe ? ..but there are a mpasmwin.exe and in the documentation it says that its supported too, so I tried..

C:\PBP>pbpw -p18f4620 -ampasmwin tst10

C:\PBP>

Fail..

ANd I have no idea why..

First I thought it was the config switches, but after playing around with them it doesnt get any better

Any idea what I have missed ?

I wrote an even simpler program that would just blink a LED, and get the same errors..

..I dont like mpasm
