Subject: [PIC] Need advice: Working solution fvr F84A programmer & SW.


Howdy,

I'm trying to learn to program PICs, and it seems that the 16F84A is the way
to go.
Now, I don't have the budget (student) to buy a prebuilt PICSTART or
something like that.
I bought the Myke Predko book with the "El cheapo"-PCB and built that,
didn't work. I really wish I could make it work, but it seems impossible.
I also tried building the "JDM"-programmer, but I can't get that to work
either.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a programmer and compatible and working
software, that will run in Windows XP (preferably) and costs less than $50?
Also, it MUST be compatible with 16F84A, some of the ones I find on the net
doesn't clearly state the F or the A...
I'm quite handy with the soldering iron, but if the electronics doesn't
work, I usually don't know what to do.

Thanks for any advice!

Greetings from Sweden,

know-how to find errors.
