configuration programming error
I'm using the epic programmer with ZIF and meLabs software to program. I'm trying to program the 12F629. I can read the chip just fine (seemingly). It reads all "0000"'s. The "Blank Check" tells me that the chip is not blank.
When I try to erase the chip it gives me a "Configuration Programming Error". This is the same for the 16F84 and the 16F877.
Anyone have this problem? I've heard that they can be temperamental, but I've tried 20-30 times in a row with no success. Parallel cable is a home-brew but checks out alright.
