Help me with a solution controlling the dc motor

[tharindu.java]

we are given a project to build a remote control car using 16f877A PIC. All we need is to drive two dc motors using the computer through the serial port. we are allowed to have wires connecting the car & the computer
I have found that this can be done with a L298 driver. can somebody tell me how to write a code or a place to find a sample code wriiten in pic c language. And also how to design the circuit.
thank you

can you explain the block diagrams? why are you using the pic? if you are using the l298 it is for making the motors go right left or forwd backwd. for this you just need 1 0 or 0 1 to be send. as for the hardware simple check the data sheet of the l298.
let me know if ur still stuck and where
