    Unhappy Trying to find my way

    Hi everyone, I need a lot of help, I got MCSP 3.0.0.5, PBP 2.50 on a machine running Vista.
    First, when compiling the code I was getting a "fatal out memory error", I uninstalled both applications and reinstalled again, now I when I try to compile I get "file access denied" and no compiler installed.
    Please someone help before I loose all my hair.
    Thank you.

    Probably didn't install the software with admin rights.
    Check the book about the "fatal out of memory error"
    Don't put all your files in the "My Documents" folder. Put the stuff closer to the root.
    Sometimes these programs don't like file path's that are over about 60-ish characters long.

    I have the same setup as you and it all went on fine.
    If you have tried installing with admin rights and tried running with admin rights, the only other thing I can think of is.....
    Are you running Vista 64 bit? I have the 32 bit version. I know the 64 bit is a lot more strict when it comes to program rights etc. Also did you install to the standard program directory or did you select a new one.

    Other than that, I dont have any other ideas. The file access denied does seem to be a rights managment issue, I do have a Vista 64 machine but the CD/DVD drive is out. If I can find a way to install the progs, I will give it a go and see if they run.

    Default another question

    I removed the MCS+ link to pbp and when I tried to compile something it did a search and found it - so if it is still saying no compiler etc, it is either not in the standard directory or it is in the progrram files folder and MCS+ does not have the rights to access it.

    Here are some questions so I know whats going on a little better:

    Where is pbp installed?
    Where is MCS+ installed?
    Did you install MCS+ using admin rights? or
    Did you run MCS+ using admin rights?
    Are you an admin user on the PC?

    Hang in there, well get it.

    Do you by chance have MCS set to use MPASM and do not have MPLAB installed ?

    Default Just more questions

    OK, I have messed around with my setup a little.
    I have tried moving my pbp folder to different locations and can not get the same error.
    MCS+ runs fine with and without admin rights here.
    The only way is to uninstall pbp and try to compile - then I get "unable to find compiler' error.
    When you compile, does a search window for the compiler pop up or do you get the error right away?
    Also are you still getting the file access denied error?
    Sorry, no answer yet....

    Thumbs down

    For a troublefree environment I wouldn’t use Vista in the next three or four years, just stick to XPP until enough fixes and updates are available!
    I have seen quite a few reasons to stay away from Vista!
