Same here. At least with my computer Nogueira's software just hangs up.
I mean the hardware *is* ok but software locks up totally. No luck there.
A real pity as the software would seem great if it only worked.

P16PRO programmer has one nice feature I did not see mentioned anywhere.
It has a 30-day trial period (if I memory serves well). So, if you do like
I did
and check the software out, get buzy for a while and then make the
hardware
you might just have run out of the trial period. Reinstalling the software
won't
help. Did not register just to see if it really workes with real hardware.
