the -h9 causes the dos window to say open for nine seconds. 9 is the max value. You can change that to -hk and that will cause the window to not be closed until you hit a key. If you do that and don't close the window you'll get an error on next time (at least I did).

/I causes it to display device ID and silicon revision.
No change.

I have no idea what is wrong.

The same setup that has been working on my "other" popular PIC compiler for a couple years is now suddenly "broken" as well.

Someone on another forum, with the same problem, suggested that there was a conflict with a Microsoft.net installation. I indeed recently installed Visual Basic. Will explore that avenue.

It would be nice if the damn DOS window would stay open long enough to see what may be printed in there.
