New C18 3.0+ Compatible FRC Code

Tom Bottiglieri is having a weird issue with the RC occasionally throwing the red-light-of-death when it's cold booted, but it's not clear to me what is causing the problem.

If you want, you can zip up your code and send it to me for a quick look.

I'm sorry, I think my first post came across as more accusatory than I intended. Kevin, you did an awesome job with this code and your work is much appreciated. I've been using various bits of your code for years now with great success. My reason for posting was hope that someone else had encountered the same problem we hit and had a simple solution.

I'm still not sure exactly what is going on. Reloading the user program to our RC seems to briefly fix the problem, leading me to believe that this program is somehow becoming corrupt. I no longer believe Kevin's 3.0 compatible code to be contributing in any way (and I'm glad to be using it!)

Kevin, I'll still zip and send you our program.

Thanks all!

Greg
