I cannot get the MCSP Boot Loader to work with an ASUS EeePC and a generic USB to RS-232 adapter. The code compiles and the boot loader asks me to reset the target micro. I press the reset and the dialog box immediately changes to say "programming" but then it hangs. Sometimes there might be one or two green progress squares in the programming window but mostly the progress bar is blank. The USB/RS-232 adapter works a treat as COM3 for TeraTerm and appears to have some communications with the target micro but it never completes the programming cycle.
I can program the same micro with the same code with a direct RS-232 cable from my desktop PC but the ASUS EeePC has no serial ports, only USB2.
Any suggestions?
MCSP 3.0.0.5, PBP 2.50B, PIC18F4620,
