There are changes that the installer makes to your PATH environment environment variable. You need to set it the same way that the computer it is working on is set to. To access the path, open a run box and type "msconfg". Hope that helps. If you need more help with modifying the PATH post. :)

Just to add to all this I tried running the newest version of the ide off the web sight on xp and it didn't work, the version that shipped with the kit worked. Something with either version 6.31 or 6.4 not working with nt based opperating systems.

Several of the schools I'm working with are using MPLAB 6.4 on XP systems.
There must be some other little quirks, like OS patch level, involved.

find autoexec.bat, and add the following lines to it:

set PATH="C:\mcc18\bin;%PATH%"
set PATH="C:\mcc18\mpasm;%PATH%"
set MCC_INCLUDE="C:\mcc18\h;%MCC_INCLUDE%"

(change the paths to match your copy of mcc18, of course)

Yes, this is a problem with PATH. I wanted to post from school earlier today, but for some reason I could not :) By the way, XP/2000 will ignore autoexec.bat by default. You change these values in Control panel>system>Advanced>Environment variables
