Program Atmega32

I am very new to microcontroller programing. I have compiled my program in
C. And got the HEX file and Makefile. Then which file should I use to burn
into atmega32 microcontroller using ponyprog software? I have compiled it
using Codevision AVR. What is the use of Makefile. I tried burning the HEX
file into microconroller. But it is not working.

Probably you forgot to programm the fuses in the right way.
If it is an ATmega128 e.g. the problem is, that when delivered it is in 
ATmega103 mode. In such a case, your program will not run.

The makefile is something like a batch-file to control the compiler. The 
result of compiling is the HEX-file which can be transfered to the 
processor with ponyprog.

Hope this may help

You need to program the HEX file and optionally the EEP file if you are
using the EEPROM. You also need to make sure that your fuse settings are
set correctly.

The makefile is used to build your project, but depending on the IDE you
might not need to worry about it. I use AVR Studio + WinAVR and I don't
need to use a makefile.
