I have had some minor timeout problems under Windows 2000 so now I only
use it on a lab machine that we run W98 on. Actually, I think that was
my article, now that you mention it. Jim tells me it is a problem with
MPLAB, but I have no way to verify that since I don't have a PICStart.
If you are programming flash parts it is just a nuicance. If you are
programming "JW" parts it is a big nuicance. If you are programming
"OTP" parts it is a disaster. If I recall -- and I'm not sure -- the
native code did work OK.

Under 98 it works fine. My only complaint is I can't seem to coax mine
into programming 16F628s even using the "workarounds" on the web site.
The native software is a bit different and takes some getting used to
but it is OK once you are used to it. Of course, the MPLAB software is
really different -- I usually just use the native software anyway.

Good luck!
