Re: Programming Problem: Extremely Frustrating

For what it is worth, we have had a very similar problem. Compiling the code out of the box doesn't work. We spent a long time verifying all the hardware (FRC, serial ports, camera) was ok (it was).

We were able to get stripped down versions of the code to work, then slowly added back the missing pieces. Eventually it failed when we included enough code - even though that code was not being invoked. We verified that we are nowhere near the memory limit when this happened - we are using around 30% of available memory. We've checked all the settings in MPLAB - right processor, compiler and linker options, starting address to download and linker file. We've scoured the map file, to no avail.

Now we'll try the unistall/reinstall route - we've pretty much run out of other options.
