I don't know what I've done wrong but...

(A) Micro code studio "can't locate" the programmer

Everything is setup fine, parallel port, default programmer is EPIC.

(B) So I tried just pulling up the programmer software on it's own and loading a known good hex file and I get...

"unable to access driver"

(C) the regulator with 13volts on it is hotter than hell

(D) the only mistake I made was accidently put a 40 pin 16c65b in backwards. This epic programmer actually has 2 DIFFERENT PIN 1 situations....that is an accident waiting to happen.
