To fix my gaff, open up serial_ports.c, and change line 450 to this: "SPBRG2 = BAUD_115200" and Line 452 to: "TXSTA2bits.BRGH = 1". Sorry 'bout the hassle and yes, Kevin is a doofus.

...Still doesn't work, even after making those changes. Not every single time, but often, there's a code error at initialization. Sometimes its more often than others, there's no real pattern as to how/when it comes, except that it only happens at the first power up(not a reset). Has the camera code been tested? It's not only the camera code though, it doesnt work even when I have the camera drive disabled. I turned off all of our software features except for the serial drive and I still get this 'random' code error....anyone else having this problem?
