epic programmer not found ---HELP!

[dmacq]

Thank you all so much for helping out with this.

But clearly, I'm going to have to back up and give this thing some thought this weekend.

I'm using PicMate Pro and thought it would be just plug and play, but its led me through some strange error messages, finally arriving at "epic programer not found."

I would dearly love to reinstall my printer driver if that's possible. I will try the polling patch as a first effort.

Or should I aquire Micro Code studio?

Does Winpic800 compile and Program?

Sorry if these questions sound daft but this appears much more involved than programming my Basic Stamp2.

And I would dearly love to make this work

Cheers

Hi MACQ,
1: Easy to acquire, comes with P BASIC PRO
2: NO -Winpic8000 only loads your HEX file into the PIC
3: How do you do a stamp? Bootloader? You can load a bootloader into PIC and then program without using a programmer later.
