unfortunately you don't choose the right bootloader. anyway, Rick farmer's have already inside a test program, i don't remember what it does. I suggest you ( as a hardware guy also, who test this bootloader ) to switch to one of these: ** http://www.bubblesoftonline.com/ROMzap.html ; only one are valid, try ** http://www.picnpoke.com/demo/ROMzap.zip http://www.htsoft.com/files/samples/bootldr.zip=20 * http://www.xs4all.nl/~wf/wouter/pic/wloader http://www.workingtex.com/htpic/PIC_bootloader.htm *** http://www.ise.pw.edu.pl/~wzab/linwload/linwload.html=20 http://www.seanet.com/~karllunt/picload.htm =20 * dos ** windows *** linux To the others I don't know the platform I like wloader but this means nothing.
