Compiling on a Windows 7 64 bit system

Hi,
1) Make sure you use MPASM, PM won't work on 64bit Windows.
2) If you're compiling from MicroCodeStudio make sure you run MCS as administrator.

I had some troubles getting it all to work on Win7-64 but have been running it for over a year now without issues.

"I am not quite sure what you mean by using MPASM. There must be a setting I have to change to select MPASM but not sure where. I have selected MCS as the adminstrator and I have also tried setting the compatibility mode but still does not compile."

Click View->Compile and Program Options and click the Assembler tab. Tick the Use MPASM checkbox and make sure that it's pointing to the MPASM install folder. On my system it's c:\program files (x86)\microchip\mpasm suite

Also at the compiler tab, make sure it's pointing at the folder where the PBP executable is located, usually C:\PBP

If you click Help->About it should tell you what version of PBP you have installed, if it does not it haven't found it. I'm using MCS 3.0.0.5 with PBP2.60A
