Greetings, I'm new to this list, so please excuse this simple question, however: I built the simple serial programmer. You know the one, a few resisters, a few diodes... When I use wither PIX (dos) or PicProg (windows), I can read, verify and erase the chip. When I try to program, I get the following error... Failed to program address 0000 (windows) Blow program error at 0000h PIC=0000 0103 wanted. (dos) On the programmer, between pins 4 and 5 I have 14v, between 14 and 5 I have 1v. Could this be because the program starts with ORG 0x000? I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
