Re: Compiling Help!!

OK, I've solved one of my problems. I switched from using the old p3 to using a newer Compaq p4 and it transfers the code fine over to the robot. It doesn't have the MP LAB Ode v7.00 yet because we can't find the install disk, but we know where one is. So right now we just compile it using our laptop, transfer it to the desktop via a flash drive and everything works fine. That brings me to the problem I still have at hand, I still can't get the laptop to transfer across the USB-serial converter. Windows recognizes its there (under device manager it sees a "prolific USB-serial converter" on port COM1). We've checked to make sure the bit rates are fine and checked the drivers, but for some reason, the IF loader still won't transfer the code across. Any suggestions about this problem would be great, and thank you so much for your help on the previous one.
