Hi all,

We have a problem at work and it is killing us.

For manufacturing reasons we upgraded the version of MPLab and firmware for
the ProMateII so that we could program 16F872s.  After we upgraded we found
that the ISP programming of 16F873s now refuses to work.

Everything proceeds as normal until the ProMate starts to blank the Flash
memory, at this point it appears to freeze with the message "Blanking xxxx"
(where the xxxx is another work I can't remember off the top of my head).
If you pull off the programming header, it continues as normal, but fails
the validation (as it should).

Has anyone else come across this problem.

robert.
