scratch that... what was working perfectly yesterday is now having major issues...grrrr.... when i hold down RB4 button and press mclr button the pic reboots showing up correctly as the "Microchip Custom USB device" as soon as I let RB4 go the device disconnects and the device dissapears in device manager... if I hold down RB4 I can use the bootloader application to read and write hex files to the device... but as soon as the RB4 is released the device disconnects...
