Hi I do have these problems. It is because the processor chip os too fast that the program Pcbug11 cannot be used on fast processor. Later i used Winbug and Jcbug11. Winbug can be used on winNT or win98. Sometime it oso give communication error. Jcbug11 i didnt try as i oso give me problem on communication error, It is either you used PC of processor 486 or slower; Or you can try using Xload or MicroLoad to download to you microcontroller. they are both available in the website of technological arts. good luck on trying, Regards HuiChen micro controller <> wrote: Hi to all, I'm using PCBUG11 to program a 68HC11A1P.
