Hi All,
Has anyone manged to get the tiny bootloader from
I have a 16F877A with a 4MHz crystal. I modified the frequency in the software and downloaded it with no problem. Running the software it discovers the PIC with no problem.
However, I tried to create a simple program in assembler that would turn on all the outputs of Port B. I know my program works fine as I've downloaded it using a programmer. However, when I download it using the bootloader nothing happens. It appears that the PIC is 'stuck' in the bootloader section and not jumping to my code when it's done.
I suspect this is the case as the bootloader software detects the PIC straight away without the need for me to reset the PIC.
Any ideas anyone?
John
