Hello
Lets start with the bad news...
ProPIC XP does not work for me too... I posted here many times, but got no remedy at all, it seems that this ProPIC XP is not working fine any way.
Also, if you are using one of those keygens on the net, then it will not work, the guys have black listed some serials
I could read all PICs, but after programming with ProPIC XP, in the trial mode of course, I can't read except 0000. I sent many emails to ProPIC XP guys there, but had no replies !!
Aslo guys could not help it either...
Go to and read about that..
Good news......
You can use either ICProg, or the new WinPic800 software to control ProPIC, but then you will have to forget about the gold stuff !
