No excuses, just brain fade) I have a 16F874 and I would like to download it's target firmware using a PicStart Plus. I have read Microchip's Technical Brief TB016 on Implementing ICSP on 16F87X parts, I have been a good boy and searched the piclist archives and discovered that there may be an issue with the status of pin RB3 when programming, but otherwise it seems straightforward. I am using the CC5x C compiler within MPLAB and I am just downloading an empty main program in order to prove the ICSP link. The error that I am getting says that the configuration bits are not being set. Can anyone think of a reason for this or where I may be going wrong? Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
