Major problem after PC crash

[Scampy]

Slightly off toppic, but related to PBP installation.

My PC suffered a crash at the weekend - mainly corrupted file structure, but as a result I've purchased a new drive and started from fresh. I've installed PBP2.60, MSC and MPlab 8.90 (also tried later versions of MPLab). I've set MCS to point to the PBP.exe, MPASM folder (with used MPSAM box checked) and created a custom programmer for PICFLASH which is used with my EasyPIC5 board. But now when I compile, I get a blank DOS box when compiling rather then the small window with the green progress bar.

I've tried several installations (including a fresh formatted drive) and still get the same issue. - anyone have any ideas ?

Just to clarify, the DOS box title bar has C:\Progra~\MPASMS~\mpasmwin.exe and no text appears in the box, just a flashing cursor

Related thread with some background info. Seems you should be good with a MPLAB version prior to 8.20.
