Eeerrrr... I'm a bit confused.
Didn't you mispell one the above device types?
If didn't, does this mean that you can read/write the chip well
but the program does not run?

You are lucky ;-), currently I use 16F877 also in my current project.
I see that my PS+ firmware (4.10.6) handles this PIC well.
Which version of PS+ firmware you have?

I ask you to do the following:
- Reinitialize PS+ with adding "--debug" option to "programmer" command
of Pista. Now you will see the whole traffic on the serial line.
- Read the config word by "copy --range=conf pic: term:"
- Program the config word only by "copy --range=conf yourfile.hex pic:"
- Read out again the config word by "copy --range=conf pic: term:"
- Send me all of the output.

Gabor
