Bob says:

Here's what you do:

  1. Go to an ATM machine and get out $50.
  2. Go to a Pawn shop and ask for an old system running Dos 6.2.
  3. Give the dealer $50 (he'll take it).
  4. Run the DOS versions of the programmers.   I do.

Aha.  The confusing thing is that the programmer software tells what to do
to run under NT/2000/XP, so I thought I could.

I re-booted to '98, and it works ok with the '877 and '874 chips, but the
'877A still don't work right.  In the chaos I managed to set the code
protection bits.

The '877 has some way to click your heels twice while muttering Arizona and
recover use of the part.  Has anyone re-programmed a code protected '877A
with IC-Prog?
