I have Microcode Studio Plus and EPIC programmer. I am trying to program the 18F2220 for the first time. I have of course bought a 100 of these chips and had a PCB built on the speculation that I would be able to program the 18F2220. 2 things

Microcode says it does not support this chip (even though it available in the drop down). It them wants to find MPASM as an assembler, which causes nothing but errors on all my @ device INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT statements, so I took them out and get a successful compile, change all the configurations in EPICWin, then download. Does Microcode Studio Plus support this chip, why does it need MPASM and how do I get my picbasic special lines back in?

When I download to the chip EPICWin just gives a Code programming error at 00000. The 2001 EPIC Programmer 40/28 Pin ZIF Adaptor I have does not have a part number other than "01189 JMS" on the back, is it the right one for the chip? Is there some unique way to put the chip in the socket (I was just putting pin 1 up by the lever handle of the ZIF)? Or is it a problem with the compiling?

I tryed a simple program in CodeDesigner too, it did not work, nothing but errors...

my PBP directory has files for the PIC18F2220

Any help would be great, I really need this to work.

Thanks
