Compile Error - Need some help

[Predator 1]

Nope...not yet. Originally there was only 1 port (Comm1) to select from. So I tried another USB port then went and manually added another comm port (Comm3) and I still get the hardware error.

I'll keep plugg'n away when I have time...hope I figure it out soon

GOT IT!!!

not really sure what I did different this time....but it worked. I messed with comm ports again...just like I did 10 times previously, but must have been missing something before.

That's how I got mine working both times...on my laptop and my work puter. Just kept fumbling around, reinstalling, clearing com ports, etc. until it finally just worked.

Not sure if it's the same with yours but it makes a difference too which way the chip is inserted into the board. With mine the writing on the chip has to go opposite the writing on the board for it to work.

I think I flipped the chip again and selected the correct comm port for where the cable was connected.

Yes, the notches have to match up. There is a notch on one side of the chip and one side of the port, they have to be on the same side.

Unless you put the socket on backwards.
